Expertise
A career in materials handling
Craig has extensive experience in materials handling and conveyor systems, so he understands the challenges within the sector and the solutions required. As a co-owner of ConvaTech Pty Ltd, Craig played a key role in developing a materials-handling product and service business that successfully competed with multinational companies across Australia.
Even after the company was acquired by Rema Tip Top Australia, Craig remained in the industry and was employed by Rema Tip Top, and later Fenner Conveyors as a leader, mentor, and innovator.
Capabilities
Ability to produce outcomes
Today, Craig uses his experience and passion for achieving results to help organisations overcome the common gap that exists between contract and project management.
Having negotiated deals with heads of major iron ore and coal producers, whilst also being actively involved in the on-site implementation of maintenance schedules, Craig has the communication skills and knowledge of priorities at all levels of your organisation to be effective and get results. I can make it very easy for someone to gain a lot in the form of return on investment.
