Summary

I am confident in a dynamic team environment with a bubbly personality and good sense of humour. Having completed the Graduate Program with ACCIONA I'm experienced with supporting multiple project timelines with competing priorities. I have supported teams across WA, VIC and outback NSW, often travelling on site to deliver programs and project tasks. I excel in building relationships with various stakeholders taking the lead in managing landowner relationships to accelerate land access agreements and build trust. I am experienced in community engagement having completed my community engagement training certificate with Margaret Harvie at the CEC. I have immersed myself in assisting the team with quality research and market analysis, CIS bids and tender applications, assistance in identifying and mapping prospects, data management, and administration.
