Thirteen years ago, Cam started at Cake Commercial at just 17.
His dad was already part of the team and a legend in the tower painting world, but Cam still had to start from scratch. Coming straight out of school, he had a lot to learn, but he was always a hard worker.
Over time, he earned the respect of the crew and worked his way up from Tower Structure Maintainer to Site Supervisor and eventually Regional Operations Manager, leading our tower team across the lower north island.
Then, as it often does, life changed. When Cam and his partner started a family, life on the road was no longer the right fit.
Cam planned to leave towers and move home to Wellington, but we knew we did not want to lose him. Instead, we gave him the opportunity to lead our passive fire sector as a Regional Manager.
It was a completely new side of the business for Cam. He swapped the outdoors and tools for an office and a computer, helped build the region up, and made the role his own.
Then, six months ago, the opportunity came up to lead our entire tower sector, throughout the country.
For us, Cam was the natural choice. And he was pumped to get back to where it all began.
Today, Cam leads the Towers team and is one of just four people on CAKE’s senior leadership team reporting to the board.
From a 17-year-old starting from scratch to a leader helping shape the future of CAKE, it has been incredibly special to watch Cam’s journey and be a part of it. We’re proud to have you on the team, Cam.
