ProfessionalProfile
I am a reliable, committed, self-motivated and proactive qualified diesel mechanic who is
working for Altivex Mining Contractors, a South African company.
I possess very good interpersonal, communication, and negotiation skills at all levels with the
ability to develop and maintain mutually beneficial internal and external relationships. I am
quick to grasp new ideas and concepts. I work well in a team, but am able to work on my own
initiative when required and can demonstrate the high levels of motivation required to meet
deadlines. I have my own fully equipped toolbox and CAT Electronic Technician. I was based in
Lesotho with Altivex Mining for almost two years managing the Drilling project at Letseng
Diamond mine.
