Overview
A self motivated ambitious director able to demonstrate ability in Risk Management, Energy Efficiency, Health & Safety and Accident Investigation. A natural leader and organiser with Management and Supervisory expertise. Is capable of accepting and implementing responsibility, at the same time being comfortable when working to tight time schedules within a pressurised environment. Additionally can communicate clearly and confidently at all levels. My overall experience ranges from heavy industrial maintenance depot’s (rail industry), the telecommunications and electronic industry and warehousing and logistics back ground.

Now as a consultant working with clients to improve and sustain a safe working environment where current skills can be used and developed to make a significant contribution to a company’s success.
