Business Manager/HR/Accounting/Marketing

Claire completed a Business Management degree after the HSC.  She then worked in the Insurance Industry until the birth of her first child. Wanting to raise her children and maintain her career she and Aaron ran a Wastewater business from 1999 until they bought the Mechanical Workshop in 2006. This enabled Claire flexibility in being able to work from home with the children and be present with them for their extracurricular activities.

Claire is now working between home and the workshop taking on more of a management role, doing marketing, HR, bookkeeping and working on the business.

Claire took on the role of a leader at the Penrith chapter of Women with Altitude in 2021 – she loves being part of a networking organisation that helps other women achieve their full potential in a supportive way.
