I have a strong passion for manufacturing in Australia and am proud to be the leader of Hydraulic Controls as it continues on its path to being a showcase for the Fluid Power Industry in Australia and around the world. We offer 50 years of practical engineering experience in manifold design, manufacture and system integration – we know how to make machinery and equipment come to life.My vision for Hydraulic Controls stems from my own career journey, working with engineering manufacturers around the world. With a background in business and qualifications in engineering, I began on the factory floor and moved up to administration, business development and management. Some of my most memorable achievements include:• Starting up new businesses in Australia, North America and India• Breaking into the US market with Aussie companies• Winning a $40m tooling program in North America• Selling the first fully automated freight handling system in Australia• Being involved with the Joint Strike Fighter ProgramI thrive on and am motivated by a challenge and have structured several businesses to be strong and profitable, effecting cultural change to maximise business growth. However, my greatest satisfaction is working in an environment where employees are proud of their jobs and the company they work for.
