About
I am a ASX CEO/COO with a background leading digital transformation across various industries, from real estate, through to automotive and employment markets. While I have broad experience, I have specific expertise in SaaS, Marketplaces, and digital tech.
Whether it's navigating the complexities of large corporates or start-ups, I have demonstrated performance at every stage of the business lifecycle.
An example of this was in my most recent role as CEO of RateMyAgent, leading the company to domestic and international success with 171% revenue growth. I also led our entry into the US market, achieving triple-digit revenue growth and acquiring over 270,000 new users.
At SEEK, I co-founded Onploy, a curated marketplace that disrupted the industry by flipping the application process and generating higher monetisation rates. My tenure at SEEK also saw me lead large operational teams during periods of unprecedented growth, driving revenue from $250 million to $350 million and launching innovative products like SEEK's first customer analytics tool.
With a reputation for calm leadership and a relentless focus on customer outcomes, engagement, and high performance, I've consistently delivered transformative change.
If you have an opportunity you think might be worth discussing, message me. I’d love to chat.
