I was responsible on site for all construction and planting stages, as well as outsourcing the equipment, materials and sub-contractors. Whilst running T.G.S I gained valuable knowledge and practical experience of construction and plant machinery. Site safety and good practice was always of the highest importance so alongside implementing health and safety measures on all sites I undertook a first aid qualification.
