Michael Collet has over 30 years technical leadership expertise including over 8 years at Super Retail Group as Head of IT Infrastructure & Operations and then Head of IT Procurement & Asset Management.
Michael talks about his career starting in the 1980s in South Africa and how he secured his first leadership role. He migrated to Australia in 2004 and struggled to find a role initially because he was considered to be overqualified. He eventually secured a role at Super Retail Group through his connections. After 8 years at Super Retail Group, he started a successful career in property development.
