PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY
A highly experienced Production Supervisor, who enjoys working on mechanical things, solving production problems, and
leading people. In my most recent position, I oversaw and supervised employees of a Rare Earth Minerlas production plant.
I have all the skills that you are looking for in an applicant, namely; extensive knowledge of plant equipment,
a strong mechanical aptitude and being able to ensure that all equipment is maintained and running properly. As a true
all-rounder, I can direct work activities, schedule employees and write up all necessary documentation. I possess the required
level of enthusiasm and energy to recommend improvements to those production methods which can positively impact upon
every area of a business. At this precise moment in time I would very much like to join a company that has a diverse and
supportive environment which encourages staff to learn from other talented professionals.
