Harvinder Khurda

I am motivated and results driven with many years of experience in full time employment. My key skills are being reliable and professional with strong hands on experience and a natural ability to work well with people from all walks of life. I am known for being approachable, dependable, and solution driven individual, with a focus on getting things done efficiently and safely.

I enjoy working in a fast paced environment, within a team or individually, and take pride in delivering the highest quality, and results, to the best of my abilities. I am a proud father of three, I believe in the importance of family values, responsibilities and principles that guide both my personal and professional life. For the past four years, I have been a full-time stay at home father, during which I also maintained some part-time work to stay active in the workforce.

Now that my youngest has started full time education, I'm ready and motivated to return to full-time employment.
