Joining the building trade straight out of school taught me valuable lessons never forgotten. Not only trade skills but also working to deadlines, customer service and consistently ensuring the quality of my work was excellent. Due to the decline in building requirements I decided to change my career path. Joining the building trade straight out of school taught me valuable lessons never forgotten.
