Retirement - Jack Holt

 

After a long and illustrious career of almost 34 years, Jack Holt has announced his intention to retire as of July 13, 2012. Jack will soon be enjoying some much deserved rest and will be trading in his seat in front of a computer in favour of working on some interesting projects under his long standing Holt Construction company.

 

As many of you are aware, Jack started his career in the former Department of Communications in 1978 as an EL recruit and progressed on to other functions within the DOC before leaving in 1986 for an opportunity with Ontario Hydro. We were fortunate to have him return with us in 1990 where he took on the role of Authorization Manager in the Toronto District. Since 2007 he has lead our Central and Western Ontario District where he is credited with many organizational changes that has served to better client services.

 

It therefore gives me great pleasure to announce that we are planning a retirement luncheon for Jack on June 28, 2012, where we will have the opportunity to send him off in style under the customary roasting process.

 

Please join me in wishing Jack the very best of luck in his retirement and I hope to see you at his celebration in June.

Retraite - Jack Holt
 

Après une longue et remarquable carrière de près de 34 ans, Jack Holt a annoncé son intention de prendre sa retraite le 13 juillet 2012. Bientôt, Jack pourra profiter d’un repos bien mérité et au lieu de travailler devant un ordinateur, il travaillera sur des projets intéressants pour son entreprise de longue date, Holt Construction.

 

Comme la plupart d’entre vous le savez déjà, Jack a débuté sa carrière à l’ancien ministère des Communications en 1978 en tant que recrue de niveau EL et a été promu à d’autres fonctions au sein du MDC avant de quitter en 1986 pour travailler à Ontario Hydro. Nous avons été chanceux qu’il nous revienne en 1990, lorsqu’il a été nommé Gestionnaire des autorisations du District de Toronto. Depuis 2007, il a dirigé le District du Centre et de l'Ouest de l'Ontario, où on lui attribue de nombreux changements organisationnels qui ont permis d’offrir de meilleurs services aux clients.

 
C’est donc avec grand plaisir que je vous annonce la préparation d’un dîner de retraite pour Jack le 28 juin, où nous aurons l’occasion de lui dire au revoir à l’aide du bien cuit coutumier.

 

Veuillez vous joindre à moi pour souhaiter une bonne retraite à Jack et j’espère vous voir lors de cette fête en juin.

I was hired into the Toronto District office August 1978 by Joe Calico. I followed Joe Calico to Ontario Hydro as a Senior Protection and Control Engineer in April 1986. I was employed by Mike Connolly and Carl Olsen at the time as a Regional Specialist in Ontario Regional Office.

I was re-hired into the Department's Regional Office in February 1990 and was promoted to Toronto District offices Manager of Authorization, in May of 1990.

I have had two Acting stints as the District Director of Toronto Office from December 1992 to September 1993 when Mike Power retired and then again when the current incumbent Mitch St. Jacques went to HR on a secondment in October 2000 until April 2002.
