Roland Fone
@rolandfone
Security and logistics professional with 15+ years’ experience, specializing in transport, asset management, and emergency response.
What I'm looking for
I bring over Fifteen (15) years of work experience across security, logistics, and field operations, consistently stepping into roles that require reliability, quick decision-making, and disciplined execution. I have served as a Security Officer, Geotechnical Field Assistant, and multiple logistics/operations leadership roles, always focused on keeping people and assets safe.
Currently, I work as a Quick Response Force (QRF) Driver with G4S Secure Solutions PNG Limited for their ExxonMobil client. I handle staff pickup and drop offs (PUDO), VIP and client escorts, mobile patrols, hot spot area surveillance and clearance, and emergency response—backed by Safe Driver Training (SDT) and Pre Employment Security Officers Course (PESOC).
In earlier roles, I coordinated transport operations and security logistics at The Corps Security (PNG) Limited, including scheduling PUDO coverage, supervising transport drivers, and managing vehicle service, repairs, registrations, and incident reporting. At Paladin Solutions PNG Limited (now Black Swan International), I led logistics and assets work—coordinating procurement, stock takes, import/export support, hotel bookings and travel arrangements, and even covering security operations responsibilities when needed.
I also helped build systems and capability within Femili PNG Inc., where I established the logistics and security department, created inventory and assets registry processes, and supported case management center and safe house setup. And before fully focusing on security and logistics, I contributed technical field support as a Geotechnical Field Assistant through surveys, mapping, GPS coordination, and first aid support to colleagues and local employees.
