Glenroy

Summary

The past years of my professional development have been focused around transitioning from a retail customer service based career into a mining career.

I was successful with this when I accepted an opportunity on my first mine site as a contractor operating a heavy rigid water cart.

Now I am seeking to further my career into mining by joining to Glencore team directly and further upskilling into a variety of different machines.

My extensive volunteer experience with both the State Emergency Service and the Rural Fire Service has given me a great sence of community that is valuable for upholding the Glencore brand withing the community.
