About me:

Candidate Info :
I am a qualified auto diesel mechanic (heavy), been in the trade for 44 years. I have served my time repairing every type and brand of machinery and I would like to finish my working career in the transport industry if possible. I have driven all types of off road and on road trucks. Spent 18 months driving interstate as well as on and off due to me work as a mechanic.
I have all my load and unload machinery licences, full operating licences and a current HC licence with no demerit points.
I have driven flat decks, step decks, floats and low loaders, semi tippers and tankers, logging trucks. I have not driven B-doubles or truck and dog trailers but I am sure I can pick that up very quickly and am very keen to learn.

regards
Randal
