S U M M A R Y / O V E R V I E W
I was involved with several projects in my career as a site manager from building power lines to
erecting platinum processing plants and installing conveyors and pipelines underground, installation of
recycling plants and water treatment plants
I have in depth knowledge and experience in Health and Safety procedures and requirements within the
various industries and companies as mentioned above and trained several safety officers and managers
from entry level to qualified status.
I am currently seeking employment close to home or in home town as I have gained vast experience
working away from home and I would like to apply this knowledge close to home.
In addition my son of 7 years has moved from Rustenburg and is now permanently staining with me
until he completes school career.
