I am a mature and self-reliant Telecommunications Engineer with exceptional motivational skills and abilities. Having worked predominantly in the defence industry, I have enjoyed the opportunity to work in a variety of countries including the UK, Europe, Japan, Oman, and Iraq. Most recently, my role in Saudi Arabia involved managing four multi-national teams (Configuration, CAD, IDE’s, and Site Inspectors). I have the ability to communicate well at all levels within and outside of the organization, demonstrated by frequent participation, on behalf of the company, at senior level Video Teleconferences. My excellent organizational skills allow me to prioritize workloads to ensure time schedules are adhered to and targets are met. I work well under pressure and excel in challenging roles. I am computer literate, with experience in numerous software packages.
