ABOUT ME

A brief introduction of myself

Welcome to my extensive & detailed online Curriculum Vitae. 

I am pretty excited to deliver an on-line aspect to my career history.  I am an energetic and experienced construction professional, and as a graduate with more than 20  years within publicly listed, high-profile commercial builders, developers, Local Government and  including design and construct organizations.  I am outstanding in working with others to achieve certain objectives, using best practice, on time and with excellence.

My professional background originated within a design, construct & documenting role, which in turn led to a contract administrating position on high rise apartment developments in the CBD of Perth, Western Australia.   This elevated myself to a Built Form Development Manager Role at Fraser's Property Australia.  This role provided many challenging duties and tasks, furthermore it provided myself the benefits of a solid business & financial acumen.   Moreover, I successfully lead a team in an Architectural practice covering various built form developments in residential, commercial, fit out, commercial, together with Department of Treasury & Finance projects, WA Government, plus a range of select clientele.  Recently, a short term contract where I Project Managed again at FPA, which essentially embraced duties from the middle and back end of the Queens Riverside precinct, in East Perth.

A career professional, in the built form space, having extensive experience in project, contract management, cash flow forecasting, co-ordination, administration with customer relations, and inclusive of design based role(s).
A number of my responsibilities rely on strong consultant & council liaison with sub-contractor service elements, this in turn has given solid skills relevant to this area.  Demonstrated by my most recent role where I have managed and lead projects with various stakeholders including consultants, government bodies, and sub-contractors which have required briefing on a number of issues, with successful outcomes.  I have highly developed communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to successfully identify and act on specific issues clearly and concisely.
