Nobody likes talking about themselves, and I guess I am no exception. But I do want Gecko clients to have an understanding of my experience and philosophy towards business, so you know who you are dealing with.
I’ve spent most of my working life in the transport and logistics industry and thoroughly enjoyed the challenges and experience it’s given me. Some of this experience has been in waste management, and some has come from various other enterprises, all of which has given me valuable business management insights and people skills.
One of the most rewarding experiences for me is being able to step in to businesses which have been ailing and find ways of turning them around. No matter the industry, this always comes down to a few basic fundamental principles; recognising what customers want from you, building relationships based on trust and offering reliable service that delivers.
Having acquired Zenith Tilt Trays and Low Loader Service in 2004, we applied this same philosophy. Our business has grown and evolved, including a rebrand in January this year to become Gecko Logistics Group. I am really proud of the relationships we have built with our loyal clientele and the fleet we have to offer. I can see so many great things in the future for Gecko Logistics.
Apart from coordinating schedules, overseeing equipment and spending time with clients, I still get the opportunity to get my hands dirty and work on a truck or two, which reminds me of the journey I took to get here.
When I’m not at Gecko, I spend time with my kids, enjoy AFL (Go Bombers), motor sports and I travel whenever I have the opportunity. Finding time to relax with friends over a bottle of good wine or two is also one of life’s simple pleasures.
