About me:

Candidate Info :
I am a multiskilled person and have been working in the earthmoving industry for the past 12 years running my own business. I have since sold my business and am looking for a new challenge. I bring with me the importance of safety, excellent customer service and a friendly and professional attitude. Being performance driven, I have a work smarter and not harder approach to tasks. Prior to building my business I operated prime movers towing single trailers up to road trains throughout Australia for over 30 years. I am experienced in Tautliner, flat top, fridge vans, tippers, containers, Skel, stock, general freight and much more. Experienced in loading and unloading dock to dock and multi deliveries, local and interstate experience, changeover experience. I have completed and passed a BHP mine medical in early 2020 so have no medical conditions to limit my working capabilities. My greatest achievement to date was marrying my wife 20 years ago.
