Career Highlights

November 2012 BHP announced closing the Tulsa, OK office by December 2012. There was a loss of over 50 people in
one functional group and would need to have those chairs filled by January 2013. I spearheaded a direct targeted
recruiting event with a total out of pocket cost of $4,200. Welcomed 152 attendees at the event and hired over 75 people.
This events ROI saved the company over $1.5 Million Dollars in agency fees and came in under the deadline to have the
vacancies filled.
February 2012 Subsea 7 had 4 boats coming back on at 1 time in the Gulf of Mexico. We were only staffed for 1 vessel at
the time Otto Candies. I lead an initiative for an in-house job fair for Offshore Personnel over 4 day period we met over
200 candidates. With the support and help of the Offshore Managers, ROV Supervisors, the Operations Manager and his
team we successfully filled all the open vacancies for our boats ahead of schedule.
Subsea 7 HR took ownership of (TDC) January 2009 all training data needed to be compiled and entered into the
Learning Management System to track employee training to ensure compliance as required by corporate, state, local and
other governing bodies. This project took several months to complete but we worked to gain the trust of HSE, Operations
and Engineering that the system would set the standard for accurate data tracking and reporting for all personnel.
Ran a 5 state region of fully commissioned recruitment at ACO Employment Services and helped to build the company
from a 4 person office to a mutli-disciplined services company that not only provided recruiting services but added 2
business groups that provided network and technical services as well as software/web development and testing.
