What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven management professional with extensive experience overseeing catering operations at remote and high-risk sites, including offshore rigs and oil field camps. I specialize in administrative and financial management, supply chain oversight, stock control and health & safety compliance.
Throughout my career I have led large teams and complex operations across multiple countries, managing budgets, invoicing, payroll, supplier payments, and materials control for workforces ranging from dozens to thousands. I have a strong track record in client relations, contract management and delivering consistent service in challenging environments.
I have delivered QHSE and HACCP training, led staff training programs, and implemented cost control, inventory management and waste management systems that improved operational efficiency. I am comfortable with Microsoft Word, Excel, budgeting tools, logistics software and learning new data and project management systems.
I bring disciplined project and site leadership, a focus on safety and compliance, and a commitment to operational excellence. I am seeking opportunities where I can apply my expertise in catering operations, logistics and team development to deliver reliable, high-quality services.
