Staff News

 

It's Hamilton Island for Tom

 

After 8 years at MDS, Tom Edwards will be leaving us after accepting a Host/Concierge/Caretaker role on Hamilton Island looking after a set of apartments and their guests. 

 

We wish him all the best. 

 

Before you ask, it wasn't the dream job that has been advertised, however it does sound pretty good as a "sea change" and he has offered everyone an open invitation to "come and stay" (contact email and mobile number withheld).   

Lisa Le will be the Account Manager looking after Tom's accounts.  Lisa can be contacted via email or directly on +61 2 8436 2835.
