I am a qualified industrial heavy current electrician currently working as a Senior Supervisor in a Power

myself up to Senior Supervisor. I have a good understanding of business processes fromboth maintenance
and planning point of views. My duties include prioritizing and handing out work, creating and closing out
work orders, solving problems on a daily basis, updating and creating new PM’s ( Preventive Maintenance
service notes),back-up standby duties,running a section with 25 people reporting to me and doing their

my experience will be valued and I can share my knowledge.
