Profile

I am a highly qualified and dedicated Senior Offshore Control Room Operator/Production Technician with wide experience of working both on North Sea platforms and for onshore companies in posts of responsibility with emphasis on Health and Safety and production operations. My most recent experience has been on the CPC Oil & Gas platform where I have played a central role in off-shore safety management, training, maintenance and the efficient running of the platform gas operations.

During my career I have relished responsibility and used my skills in a variety of situations, adapting to different working routines as situations demanded. I also have the proven ability to lead teams as well as work within them and I comfortable working independently when necessary.

Having had exposure to a range of demanding environments, I stay calm under pressure and have been able to implement a range of strategies and methods to enable projects to proceed smoothly, providing relevant support where necessary to meet deadlines. Possessing excellent organisation and delegation techniques, I have well-developed communication skills and have a particular talent for identifying problems and developing workable solutions for them.

Having gained valuable relevant experience, I am now looking for a new position with an established and progressive commercial company offering opportunities for me to utilise my experience, develop my skills and enhance my future career prospects.
