Originally from Taranaki, Gareth moved to Palmerston North to complete a Bachelor of Business Studies, majoring in Marketing, at Massey University.
He joined Holloways in 2007 as a Marketing Consultant, quickly demonstrating his ability to help clients improve their sales and marketing results. Within 18 months, he became a Senior Marketing Consultant, managing a large client portfolio and leading and training his own team.
In 2009, Gareth was head-hunted by a New Zealand kayak manufacturer as National Sales and Marketing Manager, later taking responsibility for international sales and exports. This saw him travel extensively, building relationships with wholesalers, distributors and retailers across different cultures.
Gareth returned to Holloways in 2015 to help drive sales and marketing strategies for our clients and our own business. He combines practical marketing knowledge with strong sales experience to help businesses achieve sustainable growth in sales and profits. His expertise also spans sales training, coaching, business systemisation and people management.
Outside work, Gareth enjoys keeping up with his two sons, playing squash, coaching kids’ sports, and getting outdoors to fish, dive, camp and hunt.
