Managed up to 32 bargained for employees in a technical department. Scrubbed Engineering work orders, dispatched jobs to techs. I had responsibility for day-to-day operations while adhering to administrative, technical, regulatory and budgetary guidelines. Accomplishment: Successfully pled my case to OSHA after being shut down by an inspector for inappropriate use of an aerial truck. When I was audited following the event I was able to produce 5 years of documented safety plan meetings including specific training regarding use of the aerial truck and the manufacturer's specs. OSHA agreed after reviewing all of the information, that they had shut us down without warrant and we were working completely within guidelines. They admitted they made a mistake. Summary: Had the documentation not been available, the company would have been found in violation and fined a considerable sum. We not only avoided a fine, but made a friend with our local OSHA representative who was very impressed by the due diligence shown

Traveled extensively across the US. Accomplishment: Worked with a Sales team to bring in a foreign customer who was "shopping around" to find the quickest build for their North America expansion.

Accomplishments: Many over a 22 year tenure but primarily gaining an understanding of the accounting process and how it affects the company as a whole and specific jobs. When I was in planning for example; I noticed a job that was 3 years old and had never really been started but it remained on the books. Work was not done but the job continued to take loadings/spreads. So every year it was open we gained nothing, lost money and had capital dollars tied up on a project that simply wasn’t going to take place any time soon. I brought this to the attention of my Director and Accounting and the job was canceled, funds reallocated.
