Kerry Goodaccre
Murrurundi,QLD
Summary
My name is Kerry and I have 2 teenage sons. For the last 10 years I have been working from home in our family run business whilst raising our boys. While they were in Primary school, I volunteered there and became a member of the P&C, which led to becoming an executive member of the P&C, and running the Uniform Shop on a volunteer basis. After doing this for a year, I was offered the position as a casual paid employee. Now that my boys are older, I am looking for another part time position to work alongside my role at Talara.
We still run our family business but on a much smaller scale.
