Profile
For the past 17 years I have worked as an electrician and foreman in the mining industry. I have acquired valuable experience in trackless and conventional mining, working for top companies like AngloGold Ashanti, Shaft Sinkers and Murray & Roberts. Although I have greatly enjoyed this, I am looking for a new challenge to further my career.
My resume will show that I would bring important skills to the position, including:
● Strong fault finding skills
● Supervisory and planning skills
● Working as individual or in a team
● Safety conscious
● include assigning tasks, inspecting electricians' work, monitoring team performance, reading blueprints, making sure quality standards are respected, and handling customer relations. I am enthusiastic and professional, and I believe I would fit well into the company’s team culture and contribute to the ongoing success of the electrical department. I would enjoy having the opportunity to talk with you more about this position, and how I could use my skills to benefit your organisation.
