Professional Career

My working career started with employment and study as an apprentice trained plumber. This then lead to me working in construction, manufacturing, ,steel works and also a five year stint employed doing cash in transit. I have working experience of driving a variety site plant vehicles, dumper trucks, folk lift, exervators to articulated vehicles. I have also been involved in building, laying drains and the construction of steel structures. From the manufacturer of the steel and the movement of large beams to putting up structures up on site.

Role within the company

I like to be busy and enjoy driving and going out on the different Gaunts sites. I also get involved with mechanical and electrical maintenance, this is alongside the routine safety and maintenance checks. I love the variety of work at Gaunt’s where no job is too big or small to get involved with. I also like the customer facing aspect of the role and get to meet lots of interesting people and get to support them to have business premises set up and maintained to there satisfaction, and this role enables me to put good use of the experience, skills and knowledge of my working life to new challenges. Not knowing what is going to come up each day and working with the team to get positive outcomes for what ever situation, keeps the job very interesting. 

What do you do with your spare time?

In my spare time I enjoy the outdoors and doing new projects in my garden.  I have a dog, two cats, parrot and a variety of fish.  I like taking the dog out for walks and spending time with my family and friends.
