As the Co-Founder and CEO of Baiame Burrul Indigenous Labour Hire, established alongside my dedicated partner, Daniel Woods, I am committed to empowering First Nations communities by creating meaningful employment opportunities that foster cultural pride and economic independence. With over two decades of hands-on experience in skilled trades, workforce management, and business leadership, I bring an intimate understanding of the industries we serve, ensuring that clients and employees are in trusted, capable hands.

My career began as a Sheet Metal Worker, where I spent six years mastering precision, safety, and collaboration in demanding industrial settings. This role gave me a deep appreciation for the skills and dedication required in trades, which continues to shape my approach to labour hire. I then transitioned into a Linesman and Live Linesman role, accumulating 13 years of experience in the electrical and utilities sector. For the final three years of this period, I took on a management role, leading teams, coordinating complex projects, and ensuring compliance with rigorous safety and regulatory standards. This experience sharpened my skills in workforce planning, project execution, and leadership, as I successfully managed crews to deliver projects on time and within budget.

Currently, I am working as a Fitter Mechanic on Sydney’s tunnel infrastructure projects, a role that demands technical expertise, adaptability, and a commitment to operational excellence. This ongoing experience keeps me closely connected to the needs of workers and employers in high-pressure industries, reinforcing my ability to match skilled talent with the right opportunities.

Together with Daniel Woods, whose expertise in community engagement and business operations complements my industry knowledge, I founded Baiame Burrul Indigenous Labour Hire to create a transformative platform for Indigenous employment. Our mission is to connect First Nations individuals with rewarding careers in industries such as construction, infrastructure, and utilities, while providing employers with reliable, culturally aware workforce solutions. My extensive background in skilled trades and management—paired with a proven track record of leading teams and delivering results—ensures that Baiame Burrul is built on a foundation of trust, expertise, and cultural respect.

At Baiame Burrul, we go beyond traditional labour hire by offering comprehensive support, including mentoring, skill development, and career guidance, to ensure Indigenous workers thrive. Employers can rely on our deep industry insight to deliver workforce solutions that meet their operational needs. Whether you’re a job seeker looking to build a rewarding career or an employer seeking top-tier talent, Daniel and I are dedicated to guiding you every step of the way, fostering a brighter, more inclusive future for all.
