Safety leadership sits at the core of my approach, and I actively promote a positive, open safety culture where standards are challenged, risks are understood, and nothing takes priority over safe execution.My experience spans refineries, power generation, nuclear, industrial facilities, and renewable energy projects. I am accustomed to working with multidisciplinary and cross-functional teams, providing clear leadership, effective communication, and practical problem-solving in dynamic site environments.I hold a broad range of professional qualifications and competencies including NEBOSH, IOSH, ISO 9001:2015 Internal Auditor, NVQ Level 5, CPCS, NPORS, and AutoCAD, supporting both operational delivery and management system governance. Alongside project delivery, I remain committed to continuous improvement developing teams, strengthening compliance, and advancing my own technical and leadership capability.My focus is simple: to deliver lifting operations to the highest possible standard of safety, compliance, and professionalism, while driving teams to be the very best they can be.
