Profile Summary:
I am a reliable and motivated aspiring mechanical engineer with hands-on experience in fabrication, machinery, and customer service roles. I recently completed a pre-trade Mechanical Engineering Level 3 course where I developed skills in welding, fabrication, and machining. I am looking for an apprenticeship opportunity where I can continue learning, build my skills, and work towards becoming qualified.
Experience:
I have experience working in fabrication and engineering environments, assisting with welding projects and carrying out tasks such as cutting, grinding, and measuring materials. I have also worked in machinery and retail-related roles, conducting pre-delivery inspections, assembling equipment, maintaining stock, completing deliveries, and supporting customers. Alongside this, I have experience operating loaders and forklifts, moving materials, and assisting customers in a busy workplace. My work history has helped me develop practical trade skills, strong work habits, and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team.
