Profile
I have 13 years’ experience within the construction industry as a labourer, ground worker and my present role as 360 excavator operator. I have worked as an excavator operator for the last 10 years. I have also experience driving backhoe and rubber duck excavators. I have worked on both small and large construction projects ranging in value from £100k right up to £50m. These projects have varied from road upgrade projects, new road and motorway construction, bulk dig excavations and large scale gas and water pipeline works. I have gained a vast amount of experience and in depth knowledge of these projects. My experience has seen me working in many different environments and I feel I have meet each challenge and role with enthusiasm. For this reason I feel would be of benefit to any company undertaking main civil work.
