We are looking for a very hard working, enthusiastic and physically fit person to join the Driftworks team in Tyseley, Birmingham for a full time role.

The applicant must be extremely punctual, able to follow clear instruction, be practical, work methodically, and be able to use their initiative.
They must work well under pressure, be physically strong (there will be a lot of heavy lifting) and work well as part of a growing and very busy team.

This would have been perfect for me! shame im not local to birmingham 🙁
I should move there from the US!
It’s about a 3h drive.. Think I am a little to far. I would chuck everything else out for this job.
Good luck..

I’m living In Sweden for the moment but I’m waiting for the perfect opportunity to move to England.
Is it possible to fix an apartment or some where to live until I can get my own place for me and my lady?
Otherwise it’s quite hard for my since it’s a 20h drive nonstop from Sweden.
Im going to translate my working application and I will try to send it to you tomorrow.
There’s no big chance that I get this job, but you never know….
Regards Peder
