Leon Hunter

Leeds, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom

I am a highly experienced fire fighter with Military and Civil firefighting experience, working most recently at Blackpool International Airport. I also have 4 years CAT 10 experience at Manchester Airport.
A driven, intelligent and flexible character with the ability to deliver efficient and effective results.
I am a Crew Commander with 8 years of experience working within the fire service operations. A unique combination of experiences has given me skills that are ideally suited to a challenging environment. A highly motivated Fire Service Professional recognised as a disciplined leader with a natural ability to manage motivate and calmly inspire large teams in challenging environments or crisis situations. Calm and objective at all times with an ability to accurately assess each situation, make considered decisions and ensure the end goal is achieved. I am people focused with proven motivational skills possessing a strong work ethic that develops and maximises the potential in others.
Experienced in delivering training packages and constructing PowerPoint presentations and fully conversant with Incident Command.
A depth of experience, maturity and a willingness to adapt to ever changing situations creates an approachable focal point in the achievement of a ‘safety first’ culture delivering ongoing compliance and competence.
I am able to make balanced and fair decisions, which are, I believe, an invaluable asset to an Officer.
All these skills and experiences have allowed me to develop a wide knowledge base in terms of different requirements at emergency incidents and how to approach a diverse array of situations.
