Summary

I am a highly motivated 23-year-old seeking a full-time position in the mining industry as a drillers offsider and I have a strong desire to learn and grow in this field. While I do not have direct experience as a Driller Offsider, I bring a strong work ethic, dedication, and a willingness to learn and excel in this role. My outgoing and enthusiastic demeanour enables me to thrive in all situations, regardless of the level of complexity. I relish working collaboratively in a team environment, where I can draw on my strengths in communication, active listening, and adaptability to achieve common goals and targets. I am a dependable and punctual individual with a strong sense of responsibility and exceptional organizational skills. In May of last year, I successfully completed the level 3 SIT automotive engineering course. Presently, I am engaged with Armstrong's Subaru as I proactively explore potential such opportunities.
