  • My job role involves anything to do with fabric construction /maintenance for example carpentry,painting,glazing ,ceiling tiles, digital locks,flooring,white rocking, mastic work ,estate maintenance,plastering,and many this means it can be different everyday as it’s not just one job. I think this amazing as I feel like I’m learning so much doing this and I am always enjoying myself doing these different jobs. I also work with different people within the fabric department so I can learn different skills from different people
