Arthur J O'Neill

Geelong,VIC

Summary

I commenced with the ABS nearly two years ago, and quickly progressed from APS2 to APS3 and then APS4, due to my initiative, my seeking and acceptance of feedback, my reputation in stakeholder partnerships and commitment to process establishment and improvement.

I am now seeking the opportunity of a substantive role within the Data Sourcing Division. I hope to continue to apply, diversify and develop my staff and process management skills.
