To Whom This May Concern,

I have a passion for business that has recently motivated me to undertake four years of full time intensive study. My goal was to formalise the business knowledge and experience I have gained through twenty years of participation in the Australian Army, Mining, Construction, Earthmoving, Transport and Logistics Industries. While being employed in these industries I filled the roles of Specialist Reconnaissance/ Sniper Soldier, Plant Operator, Supervisor, Company Owner and Director, Project Manager and more recently Business and Operations Manager.

The result of my passion for business, and personal commitment and drive towards continual improvement and high performance outcomes, has resulted in the recent completion of a Bachelor of Business University Degree (December 2015), comprising of a Double Major in Business Management and Human Resource Management. I have also completed a Diploma of Project Management, Diploma of Work Place Health and Safety, and a Certificate IV in Training and Assessment in that time.

I have the desire to be a part of a progressive organisations’ leadership team and am confident that the skill set, practical experience and intellectual capital gained through my workplace experience, and the attainment of the mentioned professional qualifications, that I can have an immediate and significant impact upon the achievement of organisational objectives and outcomes, and the organisations Triple Bottom Line. I seek to be involved with a highly competent and professional group of industry leaders and managers who are a part of a reputable organisation and are experts in their field.

Furthermore, I understand and appreciate that for the organisations management and leadership team to leverage maximum organisational efficiency and effectiveness, that personal, team, functional, divisional, and organisational goals and objectives must be aligned throughout the organisation. Thus, the organisations people and its contractors must be pulling on the same direction; toward the same objective; which becomes imperative and a key driver of success in Projects, where time lines and budgetary constraints are under continual pressure.


I understand and appreciate that the internal business environment requires to be strategically aligned with that of its dynamic external environment in order to drive and sustain competitive advantage; that being an effective leader and manager requires building and sustaining a performance driven culture committed to continual improvement through collaborative, empowering and participatory leadership competences that support and drive the achievement of individual, team, divisional and organisational goals and objectives.
