Quote
“Geoff Day is a man of good character, who I have known for over 2 years. He is an
exceptional Supervisor, especially with regards to construction of plant and machinery,
including repair and preventative maintenance work. Throughout the times I have had the
privilege of working with him on site; Geoff has always displayed a high level of dedication,
performed his duties efficiently, worked within scheduled deadlines and provided quality
craftsmanship. He is popular with sub-contractors and is a self-starter who needs a minimum
amount of direction. Geoff is hardworking, reliable and punctual, who completes his tasks
regardless of the difficulties or constraints that these may impose. He has a fervent
determination to succeed at all times and his drive and motivation is not constrained by a job
description. I believe Geoff would be invaluable to an employer seeking a Supervisor or
Maintenance Manager who is committed, safety conscious and service focused.”
