Self-employed Plasterer seeking new challenge
About
Working as a self-employed plasterer since Jan 2021, I am now seeking a new challenge that would utilise my strengths, skills and experience gained throughout my employment timeline. Being a fast learner and having the ability to deliver high quality work within strict deadlines. I would relish the opportunity to demonstrate these qualities in a new position.
Having a high level of initiative and strict attention to detail I enjoy seeing things through to a successful conclusion. With my excellent interpersonal skills, positive attitude and ability to work in challenging environments, I am confident that I would be an asset to any organisation. Success for me means providing a first-class customer service to my clients and working for a company who holds such values is extremely attractive.
