Bolstering productivity and customer service: David Holman

“I think the biggest gain in productivity, is to create that level of collaboration and to create the spaces that really allow people to have those key conversations, meet each other and start talking about what they’re doing in their day, their work and hopefully then say how can we help each other be better?” – David Holman

David Holman’s career began in New Zealand, initially in banking and then later moving across into the energy industry. In the early 2000s David moved to Australia to discover new opportunities, bringing with him his knowledge and passion for business development, whilst maximising shareholder value. 

Gaining invaluable experience across multiple roles working for leading Australian energy retailers, he understands these regulated industries and the need to stay ahead of the game.  

David currently looks after a dynamic team of over 1100, located in the iconic Bryant & May building in Melbourne. As the Chief Executive Officer of Direct Connect he knows that in a highly competitive industry involving real estate, it is important to understand customers and continue to evolve with technology.
