As a FIFO Life Coordinator and Personal Trainer, I delivered personal training sessions, conducted fitness assessments, facilitated group fitness classes, and provided tailored nutrition coaching to support overall wellbeing in remote environments. In addition to health and lifestyle services, I was responsible for general cleaning and administration tasks, maintaining a high standard of hygiene and operational organisation.

My experience coordinating teams, handling operational tasks, and maintaining a high standard of service has equipped me with a solid foundation for business administration and support roles.
