Summary
I am more than capable of providing support to other trades and disciplines when required and can easily be part of an integrated multidisciplinary team. I have an eye for detail and one of my greatest strengths is being able to identify flaws in relation to material or equipment. I'm looking for a suitable entry-level position in a company that encourages people to develop unique skills. Welder worker expert in MIG, flux - core, stick, heli-arc - tig welding. Talented to operate drill press and other equipment.
