- Working at Leah Jay…
It is really enjoyable and interesting working at Leah Jay. Everyday throws a different challenge and you never stop learning new things. It’s such an eye opener meeting and interacting with people from all walks of life. My role, after having worked with the commercial portfolio for six years, has recently become more involved with the marketing and communications, as well as the redevelopment of our East Maitland office.
- Before Leah Jay…
For a short time I worked in administration for an accountancy firm while I completed my certificate of registration in property management. I got my foot in the door as a residential property officer for a Maitland agent, before taking the step into commercial property management with Leah Jay.
- Memorable moments…
There are plenty...and working with the commercial portfolio for some time I often found myself in unusual places...like climbing through tin manholes of a 3000m2 industrial shed or walking around an 80 acre flower farm.
- What excites you…
I have been working closely on the redevelopment of our East Maitland office and it has been an exciting process. Seeing the transformation of our previous building to a new modern 2 storey development has been amazing and I learnt so much along the way.
- About you…
I guess I can admit I am a bit of an obsessive planner (some might say more than a bit)...I like life to be organised and love planning projects along the way. I also know more about football than probably most girls would... although that’s not really by choice!

- Working at Leah Jay…
From the very first day I started over a decade ago I have always felt welcome and part of a team. I’m the Administration Manager, which involves everything behind the scenes of the business including paying general accounts, maintaining company vehicles and mobile phones, and assisting the Directors.
- Before Leah Jay…
Coming out of school I worked in hospitality for a year before applying for the receptionist position at Leah Jay. Since then I have moved through the ranks starting out as an assistant and now I am responsible for many of the behind the scenes aspects of the business.
- Memorable moments…
Winning an REI Award for Excellence in Corporate Support is definitely a highlight. It was great to have my achievements acknowledged. And more recently I celebrated ten years with Leah Jay.
- What excites you…
When I was fast tracked from Administration Assistant to Administration Manager, I took it on with both hands and never looked back, which pretty aptly describes me. Being with the company for over a decade I have a lot of knowledge to offer other staff whether they have been here for some time or new staff; it’s very satisfying to be able to share this knowledge.
- About you…
I’m a perfectionist. I think I may have OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder). I have to check things two, three and sometimes four times to make sure I’ve read it right or locked it properly.
