Meet Mitch Gray; owner of AMG Electrical Solutions and SB Hire & Sales with his wife Aleisha.
Mitch is a qualified electrician, entrepreneur and business investor and passionate about building the capacity and capability of local industry to service the high-level requirements our growing economy needs.
Mitch is a member of KCCI simply because he thinks the most valuable asset our businesses have is the relationships with our customers and the wider community we operate in; KCCI provides a fantastic opportunity to engage with businesses that they would not normally interface with in the normal operation of our business.
Mitch became a member of the Executive because he thinks Kingaroy is an amazing place to live and want to do his part to build the prosperity of the wider business community.

Meet Damien (Damo) Martoo, who was invited to join the Chamber Executive in 2018 and then elected as President. The new leadership role fell just as the pandemic hit and the KCCI were thrust into stakeholder engagement to represent businesses who were experiencing a multitude of challenges from Public Health directions. There was a lot of information to be circulated up and down the stakeholder chain. During this time, is when Damo says this time emphasized the importance of the chamber network and the need for a strong presence on behalf of its members. At this point in time, Damo was progressing his own social media promotions and event hosting/coverage platform which allowed him to spend a lot of time listening to other's needs. Since then, Damo's situation has taken a massive direction change in the past couple years, but one thing has not changed. Damo says that he will continue to do everything he possibly can so that the town that raised and supported him and his family is the best it can possibly be for the future generations.

Since joining the KCCI around five years ago my appreciation and understanding of the town has grown and I feel better connected through the relationships that have been built.
Also working closely with like-minded members of the community who have a huge grasp on ensuring our town/region flourishes and seeing small concepts and ideas become reality. I really enjoy being part of the KCCI, because as a team, we enjoy what we do.

Susan Robertson, owner of Kingaroy Office Central started her career as a primary school teacher in Mt Isa at Mt Isa School of the Air. She was there from 1993 until 2001. Her family moved back to Kingaroy at the end of 2001, taking time off work when her children were young. In 2006 her father wanted to retire, so she began working with him and took Burnett Mine Service over 6 months later. Susan started with a team of 7 and built the business up to a team of 16. This was a challenging role, having to work and managed a cleaning crew and a maintenance crew, from 2006 until 2015. When that contract was up, Susan went looking for a new challenge. Susan and her husband bought Kingaroy Office Central in 2015. This has been a totally different challenge to her other roles, but just as rewarding.
