With over 10 years experience in the yachting industry, I am seeking a change in career direction, based in Norfolk.
I have spent years working in ship yards as a painter and fairer and fully understand the importance of coatings and surface preparation,
some of the duties included long boarding, grinding, filling, painting and mixing. I am currently working onboard Sailing Yacht ‘Is A Rose’
and have gained a lot of valuable experience from this yacht and crew where I have been in charge of deck maintenance.
I am comfortable using base coats and topcoats and with surface preparation procedures such as grinding and needle gunning and have
recently completed the ICATS course.
Having also worked at heights on the ships masts I am now looking to complete a ropes access course.
I consider myself to be a very dedicated, hard worker with a polite manner and ‘can do’ attitude. In a work environment I like to use my
initiative to achieve the best results possible. I thrive in a positive team environment and I am very enthusiastic about progressing with my
career.
