Summary
After leaving school, I started my career in the tyre fitting industry, gaining hands-on experience with a wide range of equipment. Over the years, I’ve worked extensively on agricultural/HV machinery, including graders, loaders, and dump trucks and road-trains. My technical expertise grew, and I eventually took on the role of Leading Hand at Otraco, where I led teams and contributed to the smooth operation of large-scale tyre management services. My background has equipped me with a solid understanding of both the mechanical and leadership aspects of the industry.
