Background

About Lorne Floyd

Seasoned Heavy Equipment Operator and Industrial Mechanic with over two decades of experience in the construction and mining sectors. Proficient in operating and maintaining crushers, loaders, dozers, and excavators, I’ve consistently upheld the highest standards of safety, quality, and efficiency across demanding job sites. My leadership as a site and crusher foreman has involved supervising diverse teams, coordinating with contractors and clients, and managing logistics, budgeting, and equipment inventories—all while driving production targets and minimizing downtime. I bring deep technical expertise in welding, fabrication, troubleshooting, and preventive maintenance of advanced rock crushing and aggregate systems, along with hands-on experience managing and servicing fleet equipment to ensure optimal performance and regulatory compliance. Currently completing a Bachelor of Business Administration with a focus on management and marketing, I’m integrating strategic planning, organizational leadership, and data-driven decision-making into my field operations. I excel in fostering team collaboration, developing process improvements, and mentoring junior professionals to build cohesive, high-performing crews. With a results-oriented mindset, I’ve implemented inventory and parts management strategies that reduce costs and equipment failure, streamlined preventive maintenance to extend machinery life cycles, and overseen comprehensive fleet maintenance programs that keep vehicles and equipment safe, reliable, and road-ready. Known for clear communication, adaptability, and a commitment to safety culture, I’m passionate about aligning people, processes, and assets for long-term success in dynamic, evolving industries.
