I have a good mind when it comes to thinking logically about how to repair items or equipment and I am always happy to give anything a go.

I have had a supervisory capacity in my roles and am used to monitoring someone else’s workload and reviewing their roles. I feel that I have got good supervisory and communication skills and have a very helpful but thorough nature.

I have enclosed my CV which details my experiences, should you be interested in my skills, please do not hesitate to contact me and I will be happy to answer any questions that you may have regarding my skills and experiences.
