Summary

Adaptable and committed Health & Safety professional with 15+ years’ experience spanning aged care, warehousing, logistics, and training. Skilled in injury management, return-to-work coordination, compliance, and cultural change programs, with a proven record of reducing incidents and improving workplace culture. I am highly motivated, multi-skilled, and adaptable, with a natural ability to connect with people at all levels — from executives to frontline staff. Known for being methodical, approachable, and proactive, I bring strong communication skills and a passion for creating safe, supportive, and productive work environments. My career has taught me the value of leading by example, building trust, and driving positive change, whether it’s through embedding WHS systems, training 2000+ staff, or helping individuals recover safely through injury management. Now based in Adelaide (2025), I am seeking new opportunities — remote or onsite — where I can contribute my skills in safety, compliance, administration, and operations, while continuing to build strong professional relationships.
