As a chartered accountant, Lachlan takes a different approach to most accountants in that he not only ensures that his clients pay the least amount of taxation possible but he also assists them to maximise their businesses performance. Lachlan takes the time to learn a clients business and understand what their goals are for the next 5 - 10 years time and once armed with this knowledge he can then set about providing strategic planning assistance to ensure they achieve their overall goals and objectives for themselves and their business.

Mat Walker is a passionate digital marketer Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) specialist. I'm excited to support the Maroochy Chamber members and look forward to meeting them all in 2021/22.

Simon has recently moved back to the Sunshine Coast and with his role as General Sales Manager at Sea and MIX FM, he sees the Chamber as an important part of our business and a ''Community'' our stations need to play a stronger role in.

I have a media background which started in 1992. I have worked across both Radio and Television in numerous Regional and Metropolitan Markets and have held positions from Account Manager to Station Manager in Television and General Manager in Radio. As you can appreciate, holding such roles I have had numerous responsibilities and had to be able to predict and shift/move as the current economic climate has dictated to stay ahead of my competition.
