Summary

Hi,

The Safety Lead position appeals to a people orientated professional with extensive manufacturing and safety management experience within Australia and overseas.

The past few years have involved extensive travel in Africa and South America. Recently backpacking the Southwest Coastal Path in the UK. (760 Km) was a real highlight for me.

Transparency, consistency and diligence to every job is key for me. People and teamwork allow goals to be achieved. Buy in.
