Yesterday in Springvale, SEMMA brought together a diverse group of industry professionals and experts to delve into two of the most pressing concerns for manufacturers: Finance and Jobs. The event was designed to provide real-world business advice and practical solutions for attendees seeking to navigate these challenging aspects of their operations. Attendees heard from experienced guest speakers from our member base and network who shared their insights.
First up was Sonja Pfitz, the Director of Pfitz Financial and Business Services, who shed light on the financial intricacies and strategies necessary to thrive in the competitive manufacturing landscape. Her presentation was a valuable resource for those in attendance looking to optimise their financial performance.
Sean Teer, the Employment Facilitator with Workforce Australia, followed on accompanied by his guest, Karen Bond from Mas National. Their discussion revolved around workforce development, addressing skills shortages, and exploring innovative hiring solutions to support local manufacturers in achieving their goals.
The session also offered attendees a platform for vibrant discussions and networking opportunities. The exchange of experiences and business contacts was invaluable for everyone present, as fostering collaboration within the manufacturing community remains a cornerstone of SEMMA’s mission. Thank you to all who made the ‘Business Essentials Double-Header’ a success and we look forward to seeing you at our future events!
