I safely operate overhead cranes to move steel, load trucks, and support plant maintenance.

What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a safety-focused crane or plant operations role where I can apply my steel-handling and maintenance-support experience, work as part of a strong team, and contribute reliable lifting practices in a fast-paced environment.

I've operated overhead cabin cranes at ArcelorMittal in Newcastle, moving steel across the plant, loading trucks and furnaces, and transferring material from transfer cars to loading banks.

I also support maintenance artisans and millwrights with their duties, bringing a strong focus on safe lifting practices, load handling, and workplace safety standards.

Before crane operations, I worked as a Maintenance Operator handling pumps, cylinders, gear boxes, conveyor belts, and hydraulic equipment. I work well in fast-paced teams and bring careful coordination, communication, critical thinking, and time management to each shift.
