About me:

Candidate Info :
G’day,

I’m a Queenslander born in Queensland, and I am a very experienced and professional driver, and a good forklift operator of small 4 tonners, right up to 4 stack reachstackers and top lifter container forks. I have a wealth of earthmoving experience and knowledge of construction.

I’m Corona free, fit and healthy, and a non smoker. I’m highly educated, and learn very quickly. I like working big days and big weeks.

Currently I work for Blenners in as an Interstate Road Train Driver in refigeration, 300,000km+ a year.

I am available immediately. I’m on holidays at my current job at the moment (booked last year), but unfortunately travel restrictions have cancelled my charity event and holiday. I am looking to change jobs as soon as possible.

My new Port Of Brisbane MSIC card is nearly here, and I have completed all the terminal inductions.

Nothing is out of my skillset.

Thankyou,

Lionel
