An established regional presence with history of repeat annual event bookings, provides a foundation on which a new owner may build.

Some understanding of building, working with metal, use of tools and ladders.
Very easy with medium manual handling.
A new owner with skills in social media marketing can take the business to the next level.
Happy carefree attitude to assist clients with their events and general bookeeping skills needed.
