Dean Basham

I grew up on a large farm near Deniliquin, where contributing to daily operations was a regular part of life. From a young age, I developed hands-on experience in a wide range of farm duties, including fencing, operating and maintaining machinery, sheep handling and shearing, and chemical application.

Following this, I built a long-standing career in the hospitality industry, while continuing to return to the farm to assist as needed. This has given me a strong work ethic, adaptability, and the ability to work effectively in both team environments and independently.

I have practical experience using a wide variety of tools and machinery. While I do not hold formal qualifications, I bring solid, hands-on knowledge and a willingness to learn and develop new skills.

As a business owner for eight years, I consistently worked 12–14 hour days, five days a week, without taking sick leave or time off. This reflects my strong commitment, reliability, and dedication to my work.

Now, at 50, I am seeking a stable, long-term role where I can contribute my experience, strong work ethic, and commitment for the remainder of my working career.
