ZF Services Oceania leadership team expands

by Vicki De George 22 Feb 2021 17:56 AEDT

ZF Services Australia is excited to announce the expansion of its Oceania Leadership team, with the promotion of HR Business Partner Alana Wilson.

Since commencing with ZF Services Oceania in November 2018, Ms Wilson has led the HR department by instigating a Diversity Policy and a more modern Flexible Working Policy, which contributed to the business adapting exceptionally well during the challenges of 2020.

Ms Wilson joins Managing Director Mark Lowe, Chief Financial Officer Martin McKinley, Head of IAM Oceania Darren Leyshon, Head of OES Oceania Gary Bain, Technical Services Manager Shane Trenbath and Head of Marketing, Communications & Strategy Oceania Stefanie Fischer on the ZF Services Leadership Team in Oceania.

"Alana's efforts since joining ZF Services Australia two years ago have been outstanding, with the difficulties presented throughout last year placing a special emphasis on the HR function of the company," Mark Lowe said.

"Thanks to Alana's contribution, we have grown as a desirable workplace, which in turn has seen us continue to attract top-class employees and keep turnover low.

"All of the members of the Leadership Team bring their own unique insight and perspective, which is something we have embraced in our expansion in recent years.

"We congratulate Alana, and welcome her to the team."

Passionate about diversity and workplace culture, Ms Wilson is excited to be joining the Leadership Team.

"I am very excited to take on the additional responsibility and be able to contribute to our local Leadership Team, ensuring we continue to be an employer of choice," said Ms Wilson.

Ms Wilson joined ZF Services Australia from 20 years at Balmain Leagues Club where she held roles such as the Employee Relations Manager.

The Leadership Team of ZF Services Australia focusses heavily on business strategy and planning for the company across the Oceania region.
