d'Albora Marinas new appointments to the operations management team

by Edward Shute 25 Feb 2019 22:58 PST

d'Albora Marinas has announced the appointment of Paul Vernon as General Manager National Operations. Based in Victoria, Paul is responsible for the marina operations across the d'Albora portfolio and will oversee all major projects and future development to the d'Albora sites as part of the $50 million capital works/expansion program.

Paul has transitioned across from his role within the Balmain group, owners of d'Albora, as the National Boatyard Manager where he spent the last year successfully opening the Boatyard Martha Cove and overseeing the Victorian operations for d'Albora.

Paul has over 25 years of practical and managerial experience in the boat building, yard management, construction and engineering industries.

d'Albora Marinas CEO Suzanne Davies said "it is great to have Paul join the d'Albora business and the senior management team. His marina operations and boatyard experience will be invaluable and will help grow the services we offer and customer experience during this growth phase at d'Albora"

Regional Manager Sydney Harbour appointment

d'Albora Marinas has announced that it has appointed Peter Moxham as Regional Manager Sydney Harbour. A shipwright by trade, Peter is well known in the industry, having served for well over 30 years in many different capacities.

Peter had oversight of the marinas at both Rushcutters Bay and The Spit and will now also oversee the Cabarita Point marina on the Parramatta River.

Peter started his marina career back in 1990 at d'Albora Akuna Bay. He re-joined d'Albora in 2015, before Balmain purchased the business and is really delighted by the changes and the investment from the new owners. "I have managed the Cabarita site in the past and really look forward to looking after the three marinas with a more co-ordinated approach. The timing is perfect as it will enable me to get things moving at Cabarita before we commence the building of the new Boatyard at The Spit."

Peter will take up the role from 1 April.
