History

Co-founding Directors Jo Drummond and Patrick Nolan established EcCell Environmental Management in 1995. The company offered sustainability services consulting to the construction and demolition and property sector on environmental management issues.

The company is based at Bondi Junction in Sydney Australia and all interstate and international projects are managed on-site. EcCell has completed contracts on over 165 major projects in Australia, New Zealand and the United Arab Emirates.

In 2011 EcCell launched EcCell Greenskills Training (EGT). EGT launched a Certificate IV course ‘Environmental Management and Sustainability’ for construction sites.

Simon Lunn

Simon's work has a practical basis, developed through early labouring, working as an exploration field assistant and more recently as a contaminated land consultant.  He has developed excellent written and verbal communication abilities employed with, but not limited to, subcontractors, clients, legislative bodies, co-workers, managerial hierarchy and reporting.

Simon has technical writing skills and an ability to accurately interpret and report on large sets of data, as is evident through my  first class thesis (2011) and subsequent publication in 2014. He has been trained at a foundation level in a variety of software programs including QGIS, Surfer, gINT, Blastware, WinLoG ESDAT and Photolink. I also am proficient with Microsoft Office, Word, Excel and Outlook Express. I am eager to learn and adapt to new operating software and technologies.
