Profile Summary:
I have a background in engineering, mechanical fitting, and frame and truss manufacturing, with experience across manufacturing, workshop, and industrial environments. I am a reliable team player who can also work independently, and I bring strong communication skills, practical problem-solving abilities, and a solid understanding of health and safety. I am looking for opportunities where I can continue building on my hands-on engineering and fabrication experience.
Experience:
I have worked in frame and truss manufacturing for several years, producing quality building components from drawings and elevations while working to tight deadlines. My experience also includes engineering workshop roles as a trades assistant and apprentice fitter, where I assisted with machinery refurbishment, fabrication, repairs, and maintenance activities. I have worked in both manufacturing plants and sawmill environments, carrying out practical tasks, identifying faults, repairing equipment, and supporting production processes. Throughout my career, I have regularly worked as part of a team, supported less experienced colleagues, and used a range of hand tools, workshop equipment, and material-handling machinery.
