Summary

I Consider myself a very target driven person who derives job satisfaction from a job down well. I started my working life in the Royal Air Force which i believe helped form my work ethic. During my years of service i sought out roles that helped me develop as both a tradesman and a leader.

My Air Force mentality come to show when only after a month with Kmart Tyre and Auto i was raised to the position of assistant Store manager with minimal training and expected to run the store when my manager was unexpectedly taken ill. During my time running the store I raised it 2 places in the regional rankings and helped my co-workers earn performance bonuses due to our sales records.

At Evans Quarries i was brought in when the company decided that they wanted to move away from corrective maintenance and into preventive. I quickly instigated a full maintenance program that worked alongside the current work schedule as well as turning the tool shed into a safety compliant workshop.

With Edneys i helped compliment their knowledge with my knowledge of European cars and modern fault-finding technologies.

McColl's Transported started out as Stoitse Transport but was brought out in early 2022 while the job remained largely the same. For 9months i was assistant manager to the region during a management reshuffle, in which time i took on a lot of the responsibilities of the manager in administration, meeting with customers and hiring new employees. In my normal role i am frequently asked to modify excel workbooks to improve usability or to create entire new databases.

At AG Spread i was hired as a transport supervisor to work in their milk transport department. Very quickly my role evolved to take in all aspects of operations throughout the entire company ranging from monitoring the compliance within the different Fleets of vehicles, daily communication with the NHVR regarding accreditation and route permits and regular contact with varied customers to help sort out invoicing issues.
