Frank Fotakis Marks 10 Years at Taylor

A Decade of Safety Leadership and Genuine Care for People.

Taylor is proud to mark the 10-year anniversary of Frank Fotakis, Senior Safety Advisor, whose commitment to keeping people safe and his steady, honest approach have earned him the trust of project teams and leadership across the business.

Frank joined Taylor with more than a decade of construction industry experience already behind him, spanning civil, remediation, and demolition work. Over the past 10 years, he has contributed to a broad portfolio of projects, bringing the same focus and standards to every one of them.

As Senior Safety Advisor, Frank works alongside project teams every day to implement and administer Taylor’s WHS and Environment procedures. His role demands someone who can translate safety requirements into practical outcomes on the ground, communicate clearly with subcontractors and site workers, and hold the line on standards without losing the trust of the people he works with. Frank does all of this.

Tim Christie, recognises Frank’s rare ability to connect with frontline workers while also communicating risk strategies clearly to executive leadership. Adam Vassallo, says: Frank is always available, his advice is always greatly respected, and he is genuinely helpful. Gary Stein echoes that view, noting that Frank is consistently helpful on WHS matters and brings strong problem-solving instincts to the challenges site teams face day to day.
