About

I am a 25-year-old carpenter holding a green CSCS card and a level 3 diploma in site carpentry looking to hone my skills and progress. I am currently working in the construction industry in London, I am a member of the IWFM, IOSH Health and Safety certified and am aiming to develop my career in Construction, facilities management or Project management where my understanding of building technology and maintenance, coupled with my excellent customer relationship skills, can most effectively be deployed. I am a very conscientious team-player, sociable and a fun person to be around.

My experience in the construction industry has equipped me with problem solving, communication and team management skills. I have worked on a wide range of different projects and building types. As a carpenter I have worked closely with the full range of trades that operate in construction projects and property management environments.

This equips me with wide-ranging technical knowledge that will be valuable in all aforementioned roles. I have learned to thrive in high stress environments and have become resourceful when solving problems that arise during a building project. These transferable skills have allowed me to progress successfully in the construction industry and equip me with the ability to develop my career further.
