Objective
Energetic candidate with strong work ethic, coaching, and computer skills, I am seeking a challenging position in a professional industrial environment where safety is always put first. Always on time and hardly ever miss work. I can also pass a drug screen at any time.
Experience

In 2018 I went to Gulfport MS to relocate and start in the same position, and we lost the contract 3 months later and I came back to AL and have currently been the regional safety manager for all 3 sites ever since then. Over the past few years it’s been a toxic atmosphere and the new project manager is not wanting to report all injuries and I’m tired of all the stress that comes along with this and I’m seeking new opportunities. I would also like to get closer to home “WV”.
