I love the variety that each day brings with my job. I get most satisfaction out of helping other people become successful and encouraging that they enjoy themselves whilst achieving their goals.

I\'m proud to be part of a company that delivers the very highest products to their clients. How did I get here? I started in a commercial position with NZ Rail in 1982 and \'negotiated\' my way up each rung of the ladder with proven success (with one or two low points) to get to where I am today. I am a highly motivated, reliable and results driven professional with considerable experience in Sales Management, Commercial Accountability and Supply Chain/Logistics.
