The Real Charles

Chuck’s family and friends really appreciate his ability to develop solutions to problems they weren’t aware they had. He finds himself very busy these days, upskilling his four year old to effectively manage his one year old, so he can surf more. Whilst it’s a long term strategy, it has struggled early on to get past some ingrained behavioural issues and vocal opposition from the Chief Exec.
With a penchant for steel caps, ear plugs, and hair-nets, he mourns the collapse of Australian manufacturing. His favourite project involved working on a merger integration for two baking ingredients businesses. “Pretty exciting to be involved in creating a new business with a unique value proposition, then watch them go on to do great things.”
Charles is dedicated to the career development of younger ‘consulting robots’, who give him all his best ideas.
