Smithfield,Qld

Summary

Managed shearing teams in outback QLD as a 19yo with the ability to replace any workers position as required, I married young and had 5 children who all have displayed excellent work ethic.

I purchased a small cleaning company and expanded it into the largest within 400km then purchased a HR truck to move heavy equipment for remote areas. Incident free operation was achieved by prevention maintenance management that has the truck still in operation after 15 years.

My latest company is insolvent due to a messy divorce process and I wish to change careers.

I have volunteered time to meals on wheels, Salvation Army, army cadets as a quartermaster and various school boards.

Last years physical was passed without any complications and I am ready to start whenever a position opens.

I can demonstrate strong leadership and problem-solving skills and independent decision-making skills and sound judgment to positively impact company success.

My safety focus has been demonstrated by a zero Workcover claim rate that demonstrates my vigilance and commitment to my staff.
