    Australia
    The Mornington Peninsula is located just over an hour’s drive away from the city, on Melbourne’s ‘doorstep’, and is often described as Melbourne’s playground. It is the most popular informal recreation area in Victoria.The peninsula is a 720 square kilometre boot-shaped promontory separating two contrasting bays: Port Phillip and Western Port. ‘The Peninsula’, as it is affectionately known to local residents, contains a diversity of scenic landscapes and is almost surrounded by the sea, with coastal boundaries of over 190 kilometres, a total of approximately 10 per cent of Victoria’s coastline. It is a mixture of urban areas, resort towns, tourist development and rural land.Source: This is an extract from the company’s own website.

    The good thingsI've made positive connections and great friendships. My role has been challenging and given opportunities to develop a few new skills.
    The challengesIncompetent managers and directors. Change just for the sake of it or to appear innovative with no legitimate rationale. Bringing in mates for leadership roles. No regard for declining staff morale or mental health.
