Jeremy Hawkes

Director Of Business Development

“I grew up in Bowhill and joined the family business straight out of high school – that was 33+ years ago. Since then it’s grown a huge amount and we’ve been lucky enough to contribute to some high profile and exciting projects both in SA and nationally. Its uplifting to drive past significant engineering landmarks knowing that our team has helped bring that project to reality.

Nowadays my job is focused towards building the business’s reputation, working to uncover novel ways of solving some of the industry’s most difficult challenges that if done well, will result in win-win outcomes. Securing the right projects, ones that suit our skills and provide security, and opportunity for our staff, our business and our community.

I’m a passionate, grass roots community member, I care about the local region and think it’s our responsibility to contribute and support in any way we can for a brighter future.

I honestly believe the biggest success I’ve been associated with is the rare combination of being able to enjoy the great lifestyle, sense of belonging and spirit of unity that you can get when living in rural South Australia, to enjoy the friendly and open work culture and to still have a highly rewarding professional career. Through our family’s business, I’m working with the aim of creating more of these opportunities for our regional talent and helping our region to thrive!
