Hello and good day. I'm experiencing major barriers for gaining employment. I'm a 32 year old east African male with a physical disability. I grew up in Canada and I'm a citizen. Everyday I wake up dealing with the world. I make for a great employee because I know how to overcome. Take a look at my work history and let me know if there's room for me to help. Thanks
I have over 10 years experience in designing residential construction projects, customer service, and some coordination. I will excel in keeping projects on time and up to date. I know the importance of following through with emails and phone correspondence. I enjoy the backend of operations when it comes to administrative tasks. As an administrator, I keep digital files and documents organized with accuracy. I'm aware of all the different code restrictions and municipal zoning requirements when it comes to buildings. I follow guidelines and implement procedures in order to comply with authorities having jurisdictions. I enjoy managing the flow of information between technicians, office and clients. Between all the softwares I've used, I'm comfortable learning new systems and applying my experience on top of it. I make for a great team player because I know the importance of keeping things organized. I'd like to continue my career in the direction of office operations. I do well in team environments and can initiate projects independently. Please reach out if you require any information. I can send you two relevant work references upon request.
