Having successfully run his own Instrumentation and Electrical company for many years, Gord is no stranger to strong, independent thinking — a trait shared by many of his fellow everyday mavericks. Following rapid expansion, a large service company acquired his business, and he later joined the Startec team in 2016. In his current role, Gord drives positive change by ensuring the day-to-day operations of Startec Service go above and beyond customer expectations.

Gord is an accomplished operations manager with over 15 years of progressive management experience in both private and public service companies. In addition to being a Journeyman Instrumentation Mechanic, he has a strong HSE background and experience managing multiple teams across North America. Gord holds an Occupational Health and Safety Certificate with distinction from the University of Alberta.

An Everyday Maverick Is...
A team player not afraid to challenge ideas and the current norm, always finding better solutions.

My Everyday Maverick Moment...
Not being afraid to take chances. I don't always follow the herd; I like to find my own path.
