KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I am a highly skilled Professional Driver and Plant Operator with extensive hands-on experience in operating heavy machinery and commercial driving for both light and heavy vehicles. My career has been defined by my ability to handle large-scale transportation tasks while ensuring vehicle and equipment maintenance and adhering to strict safety standards. I pride myself on my strong problem-solving skills, efficiency in task execution, and commitment to maintaining excellent customer service.
Currently, I work as a self-employed Uber/Taxi Driver, where I transport passengers safely while optimizing routes to reduce travel time and fuel consumption. My previous experience as a Plant Operator Intern with the Kirinyaga County Government allowed me to operate heavy machinery such as excavators and bulldozers, enhancing my operational efficiency and adherence to safety protocols. I am dedicated to continuous improvement and am always looking for opportunities to grow both locally and internationally in plant operation and professional driving.
