Motivated hard working individual consistently lifts heavy loads, stands for long periods and handles various cleaning tasks. Valuable and committed individual with strong understanding of food safety measures. I am able to translate from the Tongan language to English and vise versa. Dependable, on-time and dedicated to good performance. Throughout my years of work experience I’ve learnt to adapt to different environments quickly as well as multitask and organize my work effectively in a fast paced environment.
