James “Jimbo” low

I would love to further my career in a different direction and to take on new challenges and to learn new skills, which would benefit myself and my employer. I am a hard working trustworthy and friendly individual who always gives 100% performance to every task given to me. I am very knowledgeable with specific attention to detail and skills in fault finding. I work very well on my own and as part of a team.
