  M&D Ground Works

  Oct 2003 - Jan 2008

  Managing Director / Groundworker.

  I formed this company with a business partner, my duties were to oversee the day to day running of the company including hiring and also on occasions, firing, also on site overseeing that all works were to be carried out in a safe productive manner and always to the highest standards, I also had to look after our own machinery making sure they were up to date, safe an operational for the requirements for everyday use. A main part of my work was to meet and greet clients, look after stock making sure we had the right materials for the different jobs involved and the right amounts this could mean ringing the required companies to keep on top of the best prices and delivery dates and if there was any problems with what was ordered to talk to the right people to resolve any situation also making decisions in meetings on work to be carried out an to fix any problems that was put before us from our clients. Unfortunately, our main client suspended contracts with all 3rd party contractors and due to recession but because i had built a good working relationship with our main client i was able to continue work for them as an employee Show less
