Whilst working here for 4 or so years I was tasked with various work such as blocks of new flats/apartments, universities, sublet work from companies such like Laing O Rourk etc, running the complexes with men under me.

• After the shutting of Palmers branch, I worked for Tubler Shore as a Site foreman for a short period until I was approached by Air Scaffolding to be a Contracts Manager, but again this was short lived.

• In 2014 I began work for M G Scaffolding running large scale projects involving hotels, shops, bridges etc. After completing some large projects, I was approached by Pro Access Scaffolding whom I worked for a few months then went onto C P H Scaffolding.

• Whilst at C P H, I was the Leading charge hand on nights working out of Jaguar. I also looked after various sites up to 2016 where I switched to Avon Scaffolding for a short period. In 2017, Godiva approached me to be a Contracts supervisor looking after men and materials.

• Whilst working for Godiva, a small company by the name of Redditch Scaffolding approached me to run a small company for them as a Contracts Manager. However, I did not see this taking off, so I returned to MS Scaffolding erecting various scaffolds up and down motorways.

Various Companies -- 2018 – Current -- Various Positions.

• After finishing some big projects on the motorways, FDL Civils gave me a job closer to home dismantling staircase access for the public till 2020. Shortly after, V G C approached me with the position of Geneal Forman subcontractor including looking after various people for the H S 2.

Short Summary ~

Over the years I have been part of many projects as a scaffolder, supervisor, and contracts manager. I would like to say I have a broad knowledge of all kinds of the scaffolding industry and the health & safety

aspects. I feel I am capable of many activities in this work, which would benefit the company I worked for. I am a responsible person who would give full commitment while at work to ensure the smooth running of any contract with the emphasis of completing on time and within budget and safety. I feel that my development over the last few years has indicated to me that I can work well in a managerial role, despite pressures of tight schedules, and wish to continue with this development given the right opportunity.

Mr S Harvey.
