Parkes Phoenix

Our Bloke

February 9, 2017 By Maggi Barnard


Brad Gauci

How long have you lived in Parkes and what do you like about living here?
I’ve lived in Parkes for about a year – I like how it’s nice, quiet, and full of great people.

Where do you work and what do you enjoy about work?
I am a Senior Commissioning Engineer for John Holland on the sewage treatment plant and water treatment plant project. One of the things I enjoy about my work is the people I get to work with. They make the long days enjoyable.

What do you do to unwind after work or on the weekends?
Long hours at work don’t give much free time but when I do I either relax watching a bit of Netflix or head out with some colleagues for a feed and a few drinks.

What are you really good at?
This is a hard one as I don’t like to blow my own trumpet, but probably helping people with their minor IT problems.

If you could have a superpower, what would it be?
Either see the future or read minds.

What is your pet hate?
Heavy traffic and slow moving cars.

Tell us about your best holiday ever?
A tough one as I’ve had plenty of great holidays but it would have to be my 25th birthday at Oktoberfest in Munich.
