My skills
I am a very hard working and reliable people person and a quick learner. Have grown up rurally with previous experienced in farm work and agricultural activities. Recently graduated with a Bachelor of science majoring in Geology and Geography. Always happy to roll sleeves up to get the job done.
As you can see from my attached CV, I am experience in a variety of roles and industries. I have had the pleasure of working with many different people in different places and learning many new skills. I’m not only use to changing roles but I sincerely enjoy and thrive in an environment where no two work days are exactly the same. In addition to being flexible and hardworking I also have a great attention to detail and excellent people and work skills.
