Bio
Padraig Sim
Sean is one of the best Risk professionals that I have ever worked with - an absolute pleasure to deal with and a supremely effective operator who consistently ‘gets the job done’ (whilst all the while maintaining excellent stakeholder relationships and nurturing a positive and productive team culture)
Peter Smith
I worked with Sean in my position as Registrar of Bendigo Kangan Institute. In late May 2015, Sean commenced as the Project Manager for the implementation of a new student management system for the Institute. Prior to Sean's appointment the implementation project has seemed to lose some direction under the previous Project Manager. Sean worked cooperatively with the stakeholders and vendor to develop an achievable, updated implementation schedule. He demonstrated a strong focus on achieving goals, coordinating diverse activities to achieve those goals and the ability to work well under pressure.
