PROJECT MANAGEMENT, some past projects…
Rod Davis’ background in project management, either as builder, or later as developer, spans 34 years, and samples of his projects are photographed below. Rod commenced as a builder’s, design and construct project manager, after 5 years at the UNSW’s Faculty of Architecture, specializing in Project/Development Management and Quantity Surveying. He went on to hold board positions in both public and private companies, and later, as an elected government official.
Many of his roles were as a hired consultant Project Manager, while occassionally he developed his own projects, such as the Boathouse, a boutique hotel, just below. Over the last 18 years, he has worked mainly in Tropical Australia and Asia, mostlty in tourism, in consulatnt project management, but also in roles including hotel management, online reservation, politics and media. Rod has had 10 years as a broadcaster, founding or owning small radio stations. He led pioneering projects in online hotel reservation, and as elected leader, he successfuly reformed Port Douglas’s tourism promotion board, to become one of Australia’ most successful LTO’s. His associated work in town planning, in the progressive matching of development presures, to sensitive environment issues, won a substantive Australian awards.
In between projects, Rod has sailed much of the world, or toured it by motorbike… the more adventurous, the better (ask for the PIN to the travel tales, in this blog, if you are interested).
The ethical, profitable, and harmonious delivery of each project, is core to Rod’s daily, smiling approach.
