John has played a key part in many successful projects over the last 24 years, working with a wide range of clients in the private, corporate and government sectors, often in testing environments. John’s engagement ensured the delivered product met key HSE, quality and performance expectations. He has particularly enjoyed fast moving project roles with challenging timeframes and environments.

John has worked in the sectors of rail and telecommunications infrastructure (feasibility, design and construction), light commercial construction management, earthquake recovery programmes, nationwide deployment of smart meters and an RF mesh network for the electricity sector. He has recently delivered projects within the North Canterbury Transport and Infrastructure Recovery (NCTIR) alliance and Safe Road Alliance (SRA) Level Crossings Upgrade Programme.

In these recent roles, John’s commitment to early stakeholder and contractor engagement, meticulous logistical planning, and contingency planning has been essential to arrange a timeframe that minimises disruption to rail and road operations.
