As Coordinator for Ipswich City Council, I conceptualize and implement maintenance plans and schedules for park embellishments, roadside furniture and Council facilities. I undertake park/facility related projects to provide quality structures for the community whilst working within budget and according to set targets. I also provide assistance to the Procurement team scope requirements and evaluations as an Expert User, with RFQs, tenders and panel of providers. I diligently carry out inspections on playground to ensure compliance with set regulations and specifications for capitalisation, validating ‘as constructed’ plans. I undertake regular performance reviews and project reports on work tasks including levels of service and quality and workplace health and safety issues. I carefully gather data to prepare various reports for Project Identification Document (PID), weekly performance, project closure and financial handover. I address customer service requests in a timely manner and focussed on customer satisfaction. Moreover, I coordinate staff to conduct scheduled inspections of facilities. I manage staff through effective communication and ensuring they are compliant with workplace health and safety regulations as well behaviour expectations. I proactively lead the team by providing assistance and conducting training and mentoring to the other members when necessary. Furthermore, I enforce and monitor compliance to Code of Conduct and review Policy and Procedures related to program delivery. Show less

The outcome of this program was a significant reduction in graffiti at the hot spots.• Inspected and compiled a repainting schedule for all embellished parks. The schedule continues to be used by the Painting team. • Initiated changes to deliver sustainable painting practises as recommended by the Master Painters Association.
