Employers Comment
Hugh Smith, what a star ⭐️ He is polite , conscientious and hard working.
Hugh was so appreciative for his work , and his experience offered ( I think his parents were too ; back in York UK) There was not a lazy bone in his body , and he understood what was expected and worked to his very best to make sure he could do the job.
In my other jobs I learned about the layout of the stations and how differently they operate. Mainly I did cattle and sheep mustering as well as assisting in the yards and vehicle maintenance in the shed. Also I mostly cleaned vehicles and tidied up.
RELEVANT SKILLS:
Full driving licence and can drive anything – mostly used quad bikes so far, and has about 200 hrs of basic Bobcat operation.
PERSONALITY ATTRIBUTES AND INTERESTS:
Used to farm work and work outside. Really enjoys working and caring for livestock.
1m80, 95kg.
Very polite, friendly and humble man. Gentle, easy going and independent manner.
Future employers are welcome to speak to his AUS cattle station employer.
