Representing organisations in a front-line capacity on behalf of Politicians, Businesses, Directors & Chief has required extensive liaison with members of Federal & State Government, Ministers, Elected Members, other high-level dignitaries, key clients & stakeholders, public & media. This required not only excellent time management/team skills, but also a diplomatically professional manner & ability to communicate & negotiate effectively at any level.
CEO’s Directors of organisations have relied upon me to provide high level support/guidance relating to administration, governance, regulatory & risk obligations whilst leading many projects from start to finish ensuring alignment with strategic plans, maintaining professional communication with stakeholders, & ensuring KPI’s are met.

I have advanced Microsoft Office skills & have used these skills to develop new systems, websites & marketing materials, statistical reports & other business needs.
I demonstrate the ability to think tactically, encourage innovation, empower & inspire other staff to think strategically, whilst driving improvement.
My style as a leader & co-worker is one of collaboration & partnership with peers & stakeholders to actively challenge the status quo & seek improvements to services delivered.
