After working in retail management for 10+ years, I found myself looking for a career change, something to create challenges and experience a whole new industry. This lead to myself to the crane mining industry in 2022.

I was fortunate enough to start full time with Freo Cranes and learn the industry from the ground up. I quickly became a valuable employee, identify improvements within the depot (crane compliance, safety procedures). I was able to work along side the superintendent and regional manager to streamline and increase the high standard of safety paperwork on shutdowns and day to day work.

I quickly displayed the skills and knowledge from previous management positions and easily transitioned into the depot. The next step was learning/executing mobilisation, payroll and work orders for client invoicing.

Rigging has provided many experiences and skills to work in the mining industry. Being able to learn administration responsibilities has also exposed my knowledge in both sides of the industry.

I am eager learn and explore more opportunities that will lead me to a company that is passionate and has the ability to offer me a great future.
