It takes many highly skilled people to build a house, but they all have one thing in common: the ability to work as a team. It is the single most important skill – nothing would get built at all, let alone to Bloor Homes’ exacting standards, without people working together smoothly, safely and efficiently. On a construction site, or in a storage facility, a Forklift Truck Driver is solely responsible for moving materials around – safely, quickly and efficiently.
