Anthony

About me:

Candidate Info :
Hi my name is Anthony. I have a MR and a HR licence and I love to drive trucks! I started working as a 2nd class welder and enjoyed that until I had a change of career in 2014, now I am the yard person and truck driver mostly but definitely would think I fit into the Jack of all trades category. I just really enjoy working and always want to be the best at whatever I turn my hand to. After working casual since 2014, I am now looking to get full time work. I would love to get employment on the northside of Brisbane but the reality is I would travel for work anywhere north, south, east or west. I have my own car so I am not restricted on getting to places.I am a real family man, I have 3 kids who are 22, 21 and 3. I love my weight lifting but don’t often find the time to train like I should. As well as the truck licence, I also have my white card for construction, a forklift ticket (LF) and a licence as a traffic controller.
