Steve worked as GM-Commercial for the Port Adelaide Football Club while I was CEO in 2005 to 2008. He played an instrumental role in restructuring the club’s revenue generation model, doubling its corporate revenue over a 2 year period, achieving record profitability in 2007.
John James, CEO – Vanguard Australia
Steve, congratulations on a magnificent day (AFL launch of the Adelaide Oval – March 29, 2014). Not only was your team outstanding on the field but the team off the field did a tremendous job.
Loved the walk to the ground, the T-Shirts, the Team entry to the ground and the music leading into the first bounce. Very appropriate. Combined with your initiatives in the corporate space it was a great job all round. We look forward to continue working with you to keep delivering an outstanding fan experience.
