Mark Strachan
Director
As one of the two co-founders Mark’s experience in the industry started back in 1994 as an apprentice with the State Government and then working with Private companies to learn his trade both in the field and in the office. He believes a company’s biggest asset is it workers, if you have a workforce that enjoys coming to work then it shows every time they walk in a client’s door. He appreciates every client and values the friendships he has made along the way, it’s not just a job it’s his life.
“To truly offer a long term relationship and the best service for our clients it’s knowing their needs and offering the solutions. This can only be done by talking to our clients, meeting with our clients and building trust over time. It’s not just about reading a set of plans, it’s about our staff becoming part of our clients essential team”.
Date night with his wife or family time with his four children ensure Mark is living life to it’s fullest. As a sports lover and only recently taking up golf (for some crazy reason) he knows an active body maintains an active mind.

Director
Brad began his journey in the industry back in 1998 where he started a dual trade apprenticeship in Electrical & Telecommunications, quickly moving through the ranks of site management, project management and office management prior to starting Connex Solutions. “I’ve enjoyed the technical side of what we do, whether that’s out on site or in the office, problem solving, delivering technical projects on time,managing the staff efficiently and implementing plans and strategies for growth within”.
Starting Connex Solutions in 2008 in the middle of the GFC may not have seemed like the best of ideas but in many ways it taught us a lot of valuable lessons in business that we still implement in today’s dealing with clients. Its my belief in business that if you work hard, deliver on what you say and be honest with your dealings then work will come your way, our growth over the last decade has been fantastic and its all about having the right team around us.
Our business internally has always been about growing a strong team culture, a culture of safety, client first outcomes and creating an energetic and enjoyable place to work, promoting within and becoming an employer of choice.
Brad sits on the board of the Industry Participation Program (IPP) where “Our purpose is to innovatively create employment opportunities for people with employment barriers” through creation of training opportunities, strengthening local economic development, innovative corporate partnerships and promoting social inclusion, which I’m very passionate about.
My life away from work is all about family, friends and enjoying life at every opportunity, with 3 young kids and a beautiful wife who runs her own business as well, life is never dull! Enjoying the footy, kids sports on the weekend, family hiking through the hills, beach time, good food & wine with family and friends is what you will find me doing on the weekend.
