Background

About Shane Ferguson

With extensive experience in law enforcement, security, custodial operations, project management, and local government, my career reflects a strong ability to manage teams, deliver projects, and achieve results in challenging environments. As a dedicated Project Manager with the Department of Justice, I manage a small team responsible for overseeing the security, development, and operational improvements to one of Western Australia’s largest correctional facilities. In my previous role as Coordinator of Security and Crime Prevention within local government, I gained valuable managerial experience, overseeing various initiatives aimed at enhancing community safety and reducing crime. My experience as a Detective Investigator with the Western Australia Police Force further sharpened my critical thinking, investigative skills, and ability to make sound decisions under pressure. I have a proven track record of successfully managing complex projects, ensuring timely delivery within scope. I am passionate about optimising systems, fostering collaboration, and driving projects that create lasting value for both organisations and the wider community.
