I have recently taken early retirement from the position of Refinery Lead Planner/Scheduler for Turnarounds, Major Maintenance and base load maintenance. I am seeking opportunities to utilise my skills, knowledge and experience.

Recent planning projects have included Turnarounds on Pipe Stills, Cat Cracker, Steam Cracker, Machinery and E&I and planning & scheduling for refinery and chemical plants on base maintenance programs as define in the maintenance strategy. I have 27 years experience in the oil and gas industry, and more recent roles include: Lead Planner/Scheduler Field Engineer, Execution Leader, Turnaround Area Manager.
