Obviously just felling so no rescue climber required, but the only qualified operator on site and the H&S company bod was on site? In my opinion he did fuck up twice;

 

1. Not having a second competent person to assist you and understand what you were doing to manage your safe working area whilst you concentrate on your task at hand.

 

2. Allowing your first task in your new role to be viewed by your entire hierarchy. H&S isn't just how things are done, they put you under pressure and should have foreseen and mitigated that.

 

You made no mistake as far as I can see.
