Summary
I am currently looking for a great position to either utilize my current skills or grow and learn new skills. I have excellent communication skills with the ability to provide professional customer service if needed but otherwise an all rounded, approachable individual. I have previous experiences in a few roles and I am always keen to learn more. Some of my experiences have been strongly in trade related and customer based positions, although I have the ability to fuse into many different roles. I am a very hard worker and for an example; my last job role as an assembler, my production rate was through the roof.
I want to enter into an organization where there is the opportunity for challenges and career growth.
