John Barnard

I would describe myself as extremely motivated, determined, and hard working. I never shy away from challenges to enhance my work skills. I pride myself on my punctuality and reliability. As a dedicated sportsman, I am physically fit and an excellent team player who has a good sense of humour.

I am able to demonstrate initiative when required. My inter-personal skills enable me to relate to people in many situations allowing me to respect others’ opinions. I am very patient and follow Company instructions with accuracy and with ease; always being aware of the health and safety aspects of the work involved throughout my career.

My aim is to further my skills within the Company, and I would like to be given the opportunity to meet with you to discuss this further.
