Peter McGuigan's Resume

 

Queensland Australia

Overview

 

 I worked for 28 years in the electricity generation industry, eleven of those years in an administrative role. My skills, knowledge and capability were attained through job evolution. 
I am applying for this position because I believe I have all the skills you require. My work in the power industry was fundamentally similar to this role.
 
I actively participated in upgrading corporate policies and procedures in safety and maintenance and as part of the team submitted our KPI’s. Our performance appraisals were compared individually and as a team where KPI’s are measured against actual targets met.
I am experienced in working autonomously and within a team and have a strong can-do attitude. I am a goal setter. 
I believe with these experiences and my background in customer service, my eagerness to learn new roles and my general mixture of knowledge and activities that are associated with administrative work I can add value to your business.
