Profile
A focused, driven and hardworking individual with over 10 years’ experience of working within the
construction and engineering industries where I have utilised excellent communication skills to form
good working relationships with both colleagues, subcontractors and clients. Able to work with others,
as well as using my own initiative to complete all tasks to a high standard achieving targets and
deadlines. Proficient in time management, organising my own workload, multi-tasking and delegating
tasks accordingly. Pragmatic, enthusiastic and able to demonstrate responsibility and reliability in my
approach to work. I am now looking to take all of what I have learnt with me into the renewable energy
sector where I believe I will progress further and hopefully learn more skills along the way
