QUALIFICATIONS:

Irish Leaving certification (USA High school)

British CPCS competence card plant operator in the following categories:

• Crawler cranes – all sizes 8 tons-400tons capacity

• Tower cranes(overhead) – trolley & luffing jib – all sizes 8 tons-40tons capacity

• Slinger/signaller (USA equivalent = signal person)/Rigger

Experience Overview:

I have gained experience over the last 8 years in working with different aspects relating to lifting operations.

Starting off as a Slinger / Signaller,I often had control of multiple cranes, controlling multiple lifts. I quickly gained the confidence and knowledge to become a crane driver. I developed myself in being able to drive tower cranes and crawler cranes. After working in these capacities for the last couple of years, I would like to take on the mobile crane certificate.

In the capacity as a slinger/signaller, I also worked as a crane co-ordinator on a multiple tower crane project. This involved the daily coordination of 5 - 6 cranes that were working in each other radiuses.

As an experienced crane driver I worked with several trades that would allow me to do different lifting operations. I have experience in working with piling contractors, concrete frame contractors, precast concrete contractors, steel erecting contractors and lifting operations with a floating crane, and jack-up barge.

The following projects were my working placements: Terminal 5 Heathrow, Ascot Racecourse Berkshire united kingdom, Canary wharf Crossrail Station London, Bellmarsh prison high security london and Heathrow Terminal T2

I have serviced tower cranes and crawler cranes and also worked as a towercrane erector and built and dismantled crawler cranes.

I am capable of solving problems on site. I will work with the rigging person to ensure that the lifting operations are executed safely and correctly. I am a hard worker, team player and self motivator.

I am at the moment learning for the NCCCO qualification with the view to achieve the exam now that I am in the USA.
