The Creare Group was one of the UK’s leading digital marketing agencies for small to medium businesses. The business was founded in 2000 and I joined in 2009 as a Digital Marketing Consultant to support the growth of the organisation. My role involved business consultations and the development and implementation of marketing strategies including website design, SEO, content marketing and paid advertising. I focused on the area around West London and rapidly acquired a large number of new customers. Over the next 12 months, I helped Creare grow from 50 team members to over 150 and we became the largest and most successful digital marketing company in the UK before the business was sold in a private equity acquisition.

PwC is one of the top global consulting firms with a strong reputation for management consulting. I joined the Brisbane office as a Strategy & Operations Manager in the Performance Improvement team. We worked across strategy, operations, technology, process improvement, sales, marketing, cost reduction and revenue growth. Our approach would be to fully understand the challenges facing our clients, create a roadmap for the solution and form multi-disciplined project teams to deliver results in very short time frames. I led several projects over the 2 years with PwC and I particularly enjoyed coaching and developing other members of my team while tackling some extremely challenging projects together. I worked with ASX companies, large private firms and government departments, which helped me to refine my skills across all levels of business. Some of my clients included Parmalat Australia, Ray White Property Management, Sandvik Mining and Construction, Downer EDi Mining, Queensland Department of Natural Resources and Water, Information Technology Australia and the Southbank Institute of Technology.

The Restaurant and Catering Industry Association is the industry peak body. After successfully establishing Tukka Restaurant, I was invited to run for election to become the Brisbane representative on the Board of Directors for Restaurant and Catering Queensland, which later formed the national association. At 27, I was the youngest ever Director on the Board and I was involved in multiple projects to develop and improve the industry and to lobby the State and Federal Government on behalf of our members. I was re-elected in 2006 and 2007 and eventually stepped aside to focus on other ventures.

At the age of 24, I bought and renovated a restaurant in Brisbane’s West End. We created a formal dining restaurant showcasing native Australian ingredients as a world-class cuisine. We combined native herbs, berries and nuts with wild game and local produce together with our French chef to create ‘Advanced Australian Fare’. In 2004, we won Queensland Specialty Restaurant of the Year and were shortlisted in the top three specialty cuisine restaurants nationally. We received consistently positive reviews and gained a loyal local following, as well as becoming a destination experience for visitors to Queensland. I created and managed the restaurant and refined my marketing skills over several years of experimentation and hard work.

Brisbane Marketing was the organisation that promoted Brisbane as a destination of choice for business, tourism and lifestyle, which has subsequently evolved into the Brisbane Economic Development Agency. I was elected to the Board of Directors at 26, becoming the youngest ever Board Member in this organisation. I worked on a variety of projects to successfully market the city to locals, interstate and international visitors including one of the first interstate ‘Visit Brisbane’ campaigns. While serving on the Board I completed the AICD (Australian Institute of Company Directors) course and become a qualified Graduate Member.

I joined our family business at the time, fresh from completing my studies. The business distributed confectionary and other convenience products throughout the local area. This was a highly competitive space with one dominant monopoly player. My focus was marketing and customer acquisition and we managed to achieve a 25% growth per quarter in revenues and we doubled the customer base in 5 months. We accelerated the growth of the business and it was eventually sold to a competitor.

During a year of travel throughout Australia, I recognised an opportunity to sell fresh flowers door-to-door in Sydney. Two friends and I formed Impulse Flowers and we sold fresh flowers with zero wastage and almost no overheads allowing us to undercut our competition and sell very large volumes of roses. We worked hard for the first half of the year to fund our travels and many adventures.
