Hi

I would like to apply for the landscaping job you have on offer. I'm an outdoors person who is hard working and keen to learn more.

Not an expert at landscaping but have been in construction all my working life and certainly changed the landscape in earthworks jobs I've been involved in.

I have worked with concrete on many jobs and a lot of my home projects wherever I've lived have involved landscaping: laying patios, planting hedges, driveways even putting in swings for the kids.

I do work well in a team whether leading or not and Playscape certainly looks like it would be an enjoyable work experience.

I would appreciate any feedback and thank-you for your time and consideration

Sincerely

David Jones
