I'm currently working at Reserve Bank, very happily entrenched in a 2 year contract which I intend to renew in April 2010. I am not looking for work. My number: 0401967012 I'm a senior SQL developer of 12 years experience. I also program in VB6, VBA, VB.NET and C#. Various formats of my latest CV and FAQ are available at http://www.paulsjourney.com/cv/ Salary Expectations: $110k plus super. Desired Role: I get my foot in the door on the strength of my main skill (Transact-SQL) but my aim here is really to build on my 2 years of C# experience in an application support/development team environment where I can get the .NET mentorship I need, the small chunks of work that I enjoy, and build the relationship with my users that I find so motivating. Location: Living in Miranda, I'm only prepared to commute so far as the Sydney CBD. The Sutherland Shire, Kogarah, Hurstville, Sutherland, and Cronulla are preferred. Hours: With the recent appearance of our first baby, I need to keep my hours down to 40 per week. Shift work and after hours support is acceptable, provided there's time in lieu. Motivators: I work best in an environment that allows me to build a strong relationship with several key users, where I can build a reputation for helpfulness and my pragmatic focus on business needs. While I tend to lose sight of the end in monolithic greenfield projects, I thrive on developing small chunks of time-saving functionality (2-10 days) for specific users, and the face-to-face recognition of that tangible business impact. Work Permit: Australian born & bred. How things have changed after only 6 years overseas!
