Summary of Experience
Business management and financial accounting have dominated the last twenty years of my life.

With my recent experience at Dawson Co-op, I have now developed a very well rounded skill set to meet the needs of any business and help in maximizing their success.

After six years at Dawson Co-op, half as controller and half as General Manager, we have been able to achieve sales growth from $28 million at the end of 2002 to just over $70 million in 2008.

I have managed many types of projects ranging from very small up to very large, some in excess of $5 million over several years.

Performing in various roles over the last twenty years has taught me the value of honesty, integrity, accuracy, time management and above all, success.

The society of Certified Management Accountants (CMA) has placed me at the pinnacle of education. CMA training focuses predominantly on strategic management at all business levels.

The ability to communicate effectively at all levels has been a cornerstone of my success over the years.

Setting up and maintaining effective systems to ensure productivity and job satisfaction for all employees is foundational to my management style.

My diversity of experience has enabled me to gain proficiency in:
- Financial and Management Reporting
- Strategic Planning
- Information Technology
- Continuous Improvement and Streamlining
- Human Resources
- Time Management
- Team Building

In 2004, after completing my CMA, I set up a business consulting company to be able to use my CMA skills to their fullest potential.

In this capacity I have performed a combination of longer term engagements plus smaller engagements involving business analysis, business plan writing, strategic direction and implementation plans.

The diversity experienced in these smaller engagements has helped me to build the ability to hit the ground running and begin contributing to a business very quickly.

By owning such a company, I am also given the ability to perform any type of employment through my company which may suit the employer in many cases.

Reporting directly to the mine controller this business grossed hundreds of millions in metallurgical coal sales with an employee base of 200+.

With one mine just closed I gained a great deal of experience in accounting for a shutdown process including fixed asset sales and management for a large fleet of heavy equipment.

It was during my work at this company that I completed all of my CMA studies which served as my springboard into management roles.

Feb 1989–Jul 2000
During this time period I performed various accounting and finance roles.

90% of this time period was spent in the energy industry in Melbourne, Australia with a government statutory authority regulating the electricity and gas industries.
