I’m the Director of Empower Management, a specialist recruitment partner supporting Queensland’s engineering, civil, and infrastructure sectors.
With 25+ years in engineering and infrastructure recruitment, I partner with award-winning companies across Australia to secure high-performing professionals across project operations and delivery teams, commercial, estimating and pre-contracts functions, and technical leadership and executive appointments.
My approach is honest, collaborative, and built on true partnership. With deep market knowledge and recruitment expertise, I focus on long-term fit, cultural alignment, and proven technical capability — not just filling a vacancy. Most of my work comes from repeat clients who value trusted advice, market insight, and a recruiter who understands how high-performing teams are built.
If you are looking to strengthen your team with people who will lift performance and protect delivery, I bring the experience, network, and collaborative style to make it happen.
