Norman SpurrExecutive Manager IMT

Tim has an excellent grasp of Agile Project Management and applies these concepts on a daily basis. He adapts to change well and has an ability to bring others along for the ride. He engages well at all levels and his willingness to deliver candid feedback on project progress was always welcomed.May 26, 2013, Norman was Tim's client

Paul McKayTechnical Team LeadI worked with Tim during the current implementation of a private cloud project specifically targeted at the CSIRO research community. (STACC). Tim worked successfully under very challenging circumstances as the project grew and changed daily as we learnt the unique requirements of science and research. He was extremely adept at working with CSIRO management to upsell the project and manage expectations on all sides. His ability to work 'outside the box' of project management to meet goals and outcomes was a major asset to the project. I would recommend Tim for managing any project especially the complicated ones. :)

Jakob MastersExperienced Consultant/Senior Business AnalystI worked for Tim on a project in which he successfully implemented a replacement grant management system. Tim’s ability to understand business issues coupled with his technical acumen, provides for a

very valuable resource to any project team. He thinks logically and is outcomes focused. His ability to quickly assess a situation and work out the best path forward is a key driver to his success. Tim is a highly experienced tech-lead and if the opportunity arose to work for him again in the future, I would jump at it.

Lionel OrellanaSoftware EngineerTim has successfully managed the integration of at least 3 VET systems into the VETSS architecture. He directly manages 12 developers and deals with no less than 4 different business areas and other stakeholders. This is a complex environment and I have seen Tim handle difficult situations with admirable composure and professionalism. He is customer focused but has a great understanding of the development process and values the input of developers just as much. He sets realistic, achievable expectations and is not afraid to adjust them when the situation grants it. Tim will make every effort to facilitate an environment where creative developers can excel. He can easily establish great relationships with business owners and team members alike. I have greatly enjoyed working with Tim and wouldn’t hesitate to work with him again in the futureJuly 1, 2010, Lionel reported to Tim at Department of Education, Employment, and Workplace Relations

Russ CondickManaging Director at TenBagsFull ASXTim has excellent business acumen and is a clear leader. He is a lateral thinker and a people person. He exhibits, to a high degree, the often overlooked "Emotional IQ" aspects of Project Management that cannot be obtained by a 2 day Prince2 course. That said he understands the principles and practices that are required to manage complex projects. 

The project Tim currently manages is extremely complex as he is managing common components in an SOA project, a project that has multiple business owners / stakeholders and multiple teams. Tim is highly respected by senior management and stakeholders and is an asset to any organization. 

Add to all of these aptitudes a high degree of intelligence and an excellent drive for delivery and you have yourself a PM of the highest order
