Ranger Queensland Welcomes Carl Holdway
We are thrilled to announce the newest addition to our Ranger Lifting family, Carl Holdaway, who brings an impressive 18 years of invaluable industry experience to our team.
Carl's journey in the lifting and rigging industry is impressive to say the least. With a solid foundation of four years as an inspector/manufacturing expert, he seamlessly transitioned into a dynamic 14-year career in sales. During this time, Carl demonstrated his exceptional skills, serving as a Sales Manager for six years, Branch Manager for two years, and excelling for six years as a Business Development Manager.
His extensive expertise spans across Queensland, Papua New Guinea, and New Zealand, where he served as an Area Manager/BDM. Carl thrives on the daily challenges of the industry, relishing the opportunity to employ his problem-solving skills to benefit clients.
“Rangers commitment to safety & training for not only their staff, but also to their clients and users of lifting & rigging equipment, drew me to coming back to the industry and wanting to join the team.
Liam & the team in QLD have done an exceptional job in the last couple of years to be recognised as a major player in the Qld market, and I look forward to adding value to the business with my previous experience in the industry”
Join us in extending a warm welcome to Carl! We are confident that his wealth of experience and passion for solving complex lifting challenges will make a significant impact and contribute to our Queensland Branch's continued success.
