I'm a Technical and Project Manager with 7+ years of experience in drone asset inspection and 5+ years delivering inspection programmes. I have built trust and relationships with many Major UK energy companies.I'm also an accomplished tender writer, contributing to bid teams with technical content and cost modelling. Skilled in technical sales, I integrate technical knowledge with commercial decisions and support sales teams. I also have proven experience in customer success.With a Mechanical Engineering background, I excel at problem-solving. I have improved inspection efficiency, safety, and quality for companies across the Transmission, Distribution, and Renewables industries. My team and I have coordinated network-wide inspection programmes from 400kV steel towers down to 11kV wooden poles. I listen to customer needs and find solutions. Examples include: SSEN Transmission: I managed a multiyear drone-based inspection framework from 2019, completing inspections from Dundee to Wick. All inspection images are assessed by my team of Engineers and delivered to the Head of Operations and Senior Regional Managers. SEPD Distribution: I helped SEPD transition to a drone-based condition assessment program, introducing new inspection types like steelwork assessment and vegetation management solutions. I increased quality and efficiency and implemented tracking and spend forecasting processes. Scottish Power Energy Networks Transmission: From 2019 to 2022, I successfully managed the SPEN Condition Based Assessment Programme of their 400-11k Network to prioritise maintenance and repair. Northern Ireland Electricity: I have managed inspection contracts for NIE across NI for 5 years, including detailed tower steelwork inspection to National Grid Standard to assist in upgrading the Network. Our new data collection and reporting approach, which I helped design, significantly improved efficiency and safety. ESB Networks: Managed projects for ESB's new drone inspection framework, from tender writing to project management and customer success, helping them transition from traditional inspection methods to a more innovative approach.I have completed numerous projects for other energy companies, including UK Power Networks, Northern Powergrid, LSTC, Siemens Gamesa, Nordex, and SSE Renewables. I enjoy finding solutions and new ways of doing things. I love trying something new, whether experimenting with an industry first or trying a new carrot cake recipe in the kitchen!
