"So much variety in my role and the location of the coast line."
Ben Brown
SDM - Digital Asset Capture, NZ
"As a part of the Programmed Digital Asset Capture (drone) team, the thrill of exploring remote locations and capturing breathtaking views that few people ever get to see, seeing the world from above, solving challenges remotely 'offline' in the field, and knowing my work makes a real impact keeps me motivated and excited every day.

"Selfie of the TEAM - working on the Silvan Hydro Mechanical Overhaul at the Silvan Reservoir on the Melbourne Water contract.
It's truly inspiring to see the Work and Smile culture in action, even in the midst of the urgent and high-pressure Silvan Hydro 15-Year Overhaul works.
Delivering a specialised service to our client, MW, requires both dedication and expertise, and the team has demonstrated both exceptionally well.
A collaborative effort between the MCD and Maintenance teams alongside our contractors are all well deserving of a big shout-out: Nick Stewart, Shane Parker, PFM technicians, along with George Poole (MCD Project Engineer), Alex from SKF (Specialist in Bearing Replacement), and Kurt from Tamar Hydro (Hydro SME) for their outstanding contributions on this project. Their commitment and professionalism is greatly appreciated! Well done team, you are doing an extraordinary job ‘For - all of us’ - team and community.
The team showing their love and appreciation of each other … Shane Parker, PFM Technician showing his respect for our contractors work and;
