Nolan Meyer

Innovative and focused high energy law enforcement veteran seeking to bring knowledge-based expertise to positions requiring program development and planning related to emergency response, security, and business continuity. Demonstrated success in developing, delivering and supporting programs by utilizing strategies such as creating and managing effective teams, training personnel, and creating comprehensive guiding documents. Decisive leadership utilizing “two-way” accountability resulting in an excellent reputation for creative problem solving through respectful and direct interpersonal communication. Highly experienced, with demonstrated success in both independent and collaboration-based complex problem solving to effectively manage traumatic incidents, critical incidents, disaster response, and inform security and business continuity objectives. Very knowledgeable in matters related to Federal, Provincial, and Municipal Legislation, as well as University policies and procedures. Experienced in leading multi-disciplinary teams, managing and coordinating contracted services in related to labour relations disputes and pandemic response.

I am an energetic, enthusiastic, engaged leader with a very positive attitude, eager to contribute to team success through hard work, very effective communication skills, attention to detail, and leadership by example. I use positive reinforcement to develop cohesive and highly productive teams and generate meaningful and sustainable solutions to complex challenges. As a progressive "out of the box thinker," I maintain a " community first" style of leadership and service delivery model, and am constantly motivated to learn and excel in the administration and delivery of effective programming using strategies such as training best practices, respect, and professionalism aligned with the core values and mission of the community and employer. I am very interested in leading University of Victoria' Campus Safety Team as Director, to continue the legacy of refining, developing and delivering programs and objectives related to safety, security and emergency response. I believe solutions to complex problems can be solved through teamwork by examining established practices, programs, policies and service delivery model; solutions that are designed to inform guiding processes, procedures and documents and generate departmental efficiencies through fiscal responsibility. I am committed to strengthen programs, processes and procedures designed to enhance or improve UVic' already proven professional service delivery model in order to further optimize safety and security for the campus community and protect assets.
