Summary
Kia ora! My name is Tapoto, and I'm 24 years old, and I'm currently looking for work opportunities.
I am a dependable construction worker, skilled in all methods, techniques, tools, and equipment utilized in the plaster trade. I am proficient in preparing surfaces, applying plaster, and achieving smooth finishes.
I'm fit and capable of lifting heavy materials and equipment, and I can work well with any team. I understand that time management is key to being prepared for the workday ahead.
I do not have any qualifications yet. However, I have many years of work experience as a gib fixer, a plasterer, and an interior painter. I am keen to learn new skills and to expand my knowledge of the trade.
My goal is to find full-time employment to help better myself as an individual, and provide for my family.
