In addition to my training and experience in the field and leading a team, I also have the ability to perform all of the management duties this position involves. These include evaluating the team along with being accountable for the actions of my squad.
I also have the ability and training needed to conduct safety-training exercises, evaluate existing programs, devise and implement new programs when needed and to perform any other administrative tasks this position requires.
