I'm offering
To understand the amount of knowledge and experience I possess and wish to pass on to assist your teams and in turn business will only result in a raised positive safety culture and performance.
I have recently and the honour of completing a contract in Kenya assisting with the construction of a new British army base BATUK.(UKGOV/MOD contract)
Now this has been completed I am looking for my next career progression.
Highlights from last post:
I had the privilege to successfully tutor 12 wonderful Kenyans through their IOSH Managing Safely course, they all passed first time (two gained 100% marks). By the way I am a UK qualified safety trainer.
I have been leading an expat management team of around twenty and a Kenyan labour force of around 800 at its peak time, quite an experience and a major achievement to keep all of them out of hospital!
Trained two young Kenyans to assist with site quality and safety.
Also I managed the QA and QC building and fire protection installs to British and the DREAM standards evidenced criteria which was equally interesting and challenging!
I now need to transfer this character building experience to assisting teams and commercially grow businesses with an unwavering safety and quality management leadership.
This recent career experience has been an incredible personality and skills builder, I honestly believe there is no situation or issue you could present that I could not positively solve.
PLEASE NOTE, during my time as a consultant and over my whole career over the last twenty plus years I have provided services to multiple industry sectors which has been the foundation of a broad depth of technical knowledge, this has equally ensured the implementation of positive safety cultures and exceeding standards.

QESH Manager
G3 Systems Kenya.
Kenya - Nanyuki. BATUK. British Army Base. New development build. Project size - Peak operation
800 personnel over 2KM square with 18 separate buildings ranging from residential multiple occupancy, offices, HQ,
medical centre, storage hangers and training facilities. An extremely challenging and intense role requiring a self-
generated daily routine, meetings and prioritised work organisation diary.
(Education, training and general safety awareness was extremely low/non-existent with the local contracted workforce.)
Positive Achievements
HSE Management - Proactively monitored CDM regulatory requirements to ensure these were met from preconstruction to completion with regular meetings with on site client. Advised, compiled and implemented high risk activity programmes.
Reviewed and assisted in the compilation and implementation of suitable and sufficient risk assessments and plans of work for sub-contractors.
Actively monitored the sites behavioural safety.
The introduction of thorough planning was introduced where there were more complicated or high risk activities. Monitoring and generation of site safety performance weekly reports.
Trained a Kenyan HSE assistant to carry out site inspections and proactive monitoring, furnishing them with the skills to
communicate safety non-compliance correction in an appropriate manner.
Tutored 12 Kenyan assistant managers with the IOSH Managing Safely course.
Quality Management - Generation and implementation of documented QC processes of critical British build standards, this
was from the design stages and incorporated CDM regulatory requirements, incorporating the build profile, out of ground,
construction materials, M&E, fire plans / protection materials and install processes, 1st/2nd fix to sign off completion. Also
monitored and completed evidence gathering for DREAM criteria submittal in line with Government and MOD policy
completing the project stages to required environmental performance standards.
Implementation of QA processes to monitor the above processes.
Trained a Kenyan QC assistant to understand the required standards and processes to undertake basic stage monitoring.
Positive Results
High risk programmes were rolled out with target focused proactive monitoring, near miss reporting and regular
consultations with client and sub-contractors along with specifically designed, delivered and recorded TBT.
To improve behavioural safety across the site, good practice reporting and recognition reward schemes which was
published internally and companywide onto the monthly safety newsletter was introduced, this resulted in raised
personnel's awareness and education towards safety and also quality standards site wide. With the engagement and buy
in, this created a positive behavioural safety culture which equally resulted in higher safety performance.
Site safety performance was also improved through an internal reporting system carried out and submitted weekly to UK
head office. This provided and generated on site and the UK based construction teams with performance improvement
strategies with collaborative engagement of team members in their specialist roles ensuring safety and quality was
productivity balanced at commercial levels.
To collaboratively assist the local sub-contractors with their required safety documentation such as risk assessments and plans of work, planning meetings were arranged key indicators identified and actions were agreed.
IOSH Managing safely course - All 12 Kenyans passed first time and 2 gained full marks, there was no moderation
corrections returned from IOSH UK. (This qualification is probably only held by less than .1% of the countries work force)
The actions taken resulted in site personnel embracing a much more positive outlook, morale increased and the approach to working safely with all understanding their roles and responsibilities evolved. This also Inspired fellow workers to be more
safety aware and actively monitor their own and others working practices and positively intervene where appropriate.
Relationships with the client grew stronger and all parties recognised the sustainable long term success achieved. The rise in communication levels had a substantial positive impact especially recognising life values.
All the positive aspects especially the thorough planning had a commercial impact and financial motivation as processes
were more coordinated and efficient which assisted with the projects targets.
The site managed to achieve 120 continuous days' accident free, a record for the company group worldwide.
