SUMMARY

I am a reliable and self-motivated Heavy Equipment Operator with 11 years’ experience operating dozers, graders and loaders. I also have experience operating excavators, roller compactors, skid steers, articulated rock trucks and water trucks.

I gained valuable insight into earth work projects in my role as Foreman (2015-2018) at the BHP Billiton Jansen Mine Site development. This involved overseeing site services activities, land management, road building, pond construction and maintenance of surrounding roads and highways.
