Ian Young has joined Celmac as General Manager Finance & Administration, to oversee a transformation of the company’s operations support platforms, through the planned introduction of new business intelligence tools and e-commerce capabilities, as Celmac gears itself up for further growth and expansion.

Young, who brings with him over four decades of experience in accounting and business consulting, says: "My role here is to lay the groundwork for a system that provides better reporting, smarter stock control, and more efficient service for our staff, which will ultimately be better for our customers. I will continue to help Celmac rebuild how information about products and spare parts is categorised and captured so that everything talks to each other.”
McIntyre adds: “Ian's appointment will enable me to spend more time on the strategic aspects of the business, building the team, managing relationships with suppliers and key customers and sourcing and bringing new products to market.”
“Celmac already has a great team of experienced professionals and excellent customer relationships, supporting major brands, so this focused effort will enable us to be even more efficient in meeting their needs, in support of our major plans for growth.”
Looking ahead, Ian sees his role as building on a 38-year old, wholly Australian owned business, exclusively operating across the Wide Format print segment into a self-sustaining organisation that can scale without constantly leaning on its founders.
