About me

I see myself as a hands-on individual with a can-do attitude. I am keen to progress further into the yachting industry as I believe it would be the perfect challenge that fits my passion for travel. I am currently working as a temporary deckhand on a 30m motor yacht. I have also completed 18 days of daywork on 4 motor yachts in Palma De Mallorca. I also have experience in Environmental Compliance, Construction site & Bar/Restaurant environments. I pride myself on being a quick learner & a ‘people person’ who can work well in a team or independently. Throughout my working life, I have gained experience in physically demanding industries where working long hours was required. I displayed these skills whilst working in a team of tradesmen in Melbourne (Australia). One of my roles included directing site traffic with a two-way radio, clear communication was essential.
