I demonstrated an ability to grasp technical concepts quickly and develop strong relationships, which is proven in the repeat business I enjoyed from both candidates and clients. Whilst in Sydney I managed a team of 3 people and took responsibility for a larger team to cover annual leave etc. A successful people manager I relished the opportunity to train a team in how to be better consultants and make lots of money! In June 2012 I re-located with Hays to the Townsville Office in QLD where I recruited for Mechanical & Electrical Project based staff on mine sites from the Bowen Basin to Mt Isa. Jobs I recruited for included: Electrical & Mechanical Project Managers, Project Engineers, Site Supervisors, Planners and Commissioning Engineers for mine site based construction projects.Due to the mining industry slowing down and a number of key projects being cancelled I decided that over 5 years in recruitment was enough and I left the industry having learnt a great deal and worked with some amazing people.
