I’m a Linesman worker with more than 10 years of hands-on experience with reputable companies in Zimbabwe like the Zimbabwe Electricity Transmission Commission (ZETDC).
My expertise lies in working with High Voltage pylons, digging trenches, erecting towers, string and clamping electrical cables.
What sets me apart is not just my proficiency, but also my drive to meeting deadlines, problem solving and excellency in team playing. I’m on the lookout for an opportunity to bring my creative problem-solving skills to a larger firm with a strong focus on further skills development, an inclusive culture, and growth opportunities.
