Summary

I am currently looking to join the CRH Ash Grove team at the Mississauga cement plant as a full time production operator or yard crew employee. I have heard good things about the company when it comes to safety, employee appreciation, work environment and community involvement. Also CRH's stance on environmental responsibility aligns with my values. I'm adept at working shift work and 12 hour shifts. I learn quickly in any environment with safety standards as a priority. I would be an asset to your team and hope you will consider my application.
