  • Description

    Hi, I’m a keen worker and love the outdoors! I like spending my free time walking and crocheting as well as socialising.
    I’ve been in NZ for about a month so far exploring the south island and absolutely loving the incredible nature and sights it’s had to offer. I’m looking forward to getting stuck into some work in such a lovely country!

  • More details about your skills

    I, Ruth, have experience in hands on conservation work - during university I volunteered working on conservation efforts across the Peak District in the UK. I have gained skills within ecosystem management - tree planting and forest maintanence - and a proficiency in manual tool use.

    Both my partner, Buzz, and I are very personable and have wide spread experience in people facing roles, from hospitality/retail to customer relations.

    Buzz has extensive experience in administration and project coordination. In his previous roles he has spent time working interdepartmentally between teams with ranging skillsets requiring excellent collaborative and time management skills. His working experience has varied greatly helping him to develop an adaptable mind/skillset. He's always eager to try out new things and add them to his toolbelt. He is a great communicator with a keen eye for detail. He's not shy from physical labour either.

    We are both very eager workers and are always ready to get stuck in with whatever tasks need doing.
