PEOPLE POWER: Meet Tim, EDL’s Global Control Centre Manager who keeps operations running smoothly and thrives on innovation and improvement. Tim has been with EDL for more than 22 years, joining the team back in 2004 and relocating his family to Brisbane from Darwin.
Over his 22 years with the company, Tim has worked in many roles and on a wide range of projects across Australia. These have included Senior Controls Engineer, Project Engineer, Commissioning Manager, Engineering Manager, Operations Information Manager, and most recently Central SCADA and Global Control Centre Manager.
Tim was drawn to work with EDL to develop his engineering and leadership skills. “I enjoy working across a diverse range of energy technologies, learning and growing as I take on new roles. I’ve stayed with EDL because of the opportunity to drive innovation and improvement. I’ve always enjoyed being an early adopter of new technologies, and in my work at EDL I get to apply those technologies to real business challenges,” said Tim.
Tim is particularly proud of his role in helping to deliver several key digital initiatives at EDL including the introduction of an operational information platform powered by PI Historian, the establishment of the Global Control Centre, and most recently leading the rollout of Central SCADA across Australia.
“I enjoy helping our people to make better decisions in their roles by providing better information and tools. I also enjoy mentoring people and sharing knowledge. Success isn’t just about delivering a system – it’s about helping individuals and teams get the most from a system so they can perform at their best,” he added.
Outside of work, Tim enjoys spending time with his family, watching movies, cooking and dining out, as well as trying out new technologies. Tim was an early adopter of electric vehicles and was one of the first to arrive at the EDL office by electric scooter.
