How did your journey at Bluestones One begin and what has it been like since?
I have been with Bluestones One for 6 years. I first started in the logistics section of the business and I then moved to the retail and installations department, putting together teams for our installation clients. Moving forward, as the business consolidated, I moved over to the resource team.

My role is to put teams together for various clients, which involves making sure skill sets are met, dealing with accommodation, managing daily tasks within the resource team, cost tracking, payroll & expenses, and addressing any training requirements within the business.

How would you usually start your day at work?
The start of my work day varies daily and it could be anything from managing calls from field staff to emailing management or addressing other requests that come in.

What does a typical day at work look like for you?
Problem-solving, and supporting the resource team and field staff.

What do you find challenging?
Last-minute changes to plans can be challenging at times but once you have achieved them it feels rewarding.

What do you enjoy about the role?
Every single bit of my job and the company. When you find something you love doing there is no better feeling.

What is the best thing about working for Bluestones One?

  • The management structure and the people within that structure
  • Every day is different
