Having joined the Moddex family three years ago, Molly gets things done efficiently and quickly in her widespread role of marketing, sales support, and accounts assistant.

The opportunity to develop Moddex’s unique positioning in the marketplace has been invaluable and fulfilling.

With three daughters keeping him on his toes, he’s never short on inspiration.

Coming from a background of business ownership and National Sales management Jeremy joined Moddex as a shareholder and Director in 2018. With a restless mind seeking new ways of doing everyday things, Jeremy is quite the master innovator. If he’s not leading the Moddex team or thinking up crazy new solutions, you will see him outdoors or enjoying a quiet whisky among friends.

Bernard Raikes

NZ Operations & Projects Manager

As the master of fighting fires, Bernard gets in amongst the whirlwind and delivers on our customers needs, no matter the cost. He is inspired by positive feedback from customers and team members, so if you see him, be sure to give him a bell! Any spare or non-work time he has is spent enjoying time, especially in the outdoors with his wife and three young boys.

In the construction industry for over 12 years, Rick has spent 3 and a half of them as the Area Sales Manager for Moddex, making sure everything fits. Motivated by personal growth he’s prided himself on setting the bar high and draws inspiration from the day-to-day job of getting things done. When it comes to gaining a new skill, the ability to never forget anything he’s read, heard or seen is high on Rick’s agenda.

State Manager – Major Projects Consultant

Starting with Moddex back in July 2017, Joe was the Area Sales Manager for NSW. Having had a passion and love of construction since he can remember, he worked for a builder upon leaving school. Joe’s motivation comes in the form of the Moddex mantra, 'One winning team'. So any home renovation, modification or construction project is where he loves to be. He sees treating customers by going above and beyond their expectations as the formula to provide exceptional communication and service.

Design Coordinator

Beginning his Moddex journey as a trainee draftsman, Iain currently works as a coordinator for the Design Team after 8 years with the team. He strives to ensure everything fits, leaving the CAD department 100% spot on. Born and raised in Maryborough, he’s most at home when toying with anything from computers to video games or cars. If they’re all combined together then that’s even better. His biggest motivator is the endless possibilities of technology advancements over the coming decades.

At Moddex, we recognise that our employees are key to the success of our organisation and we want our people to be Happy, Challenged and Winning.

We are about challenging the norms to create an inspiring and safe workplace for everyone. We understand that our team comes from a wide range of diverse backgrounds and embracing this diversity enables Moddex to better serve our customers and community.

When we actively support diversity and create a culture that is respectful and inclusive of the individual differences and perspectives each of us brings to the table, this has an impact on the quality of our service we deliver to our customers.

Our aim is to attract, keep and promote the most qualified person for the job, regardless of race, religion, gender, age or education. We strive to make our workplace inclusive, supportive and free of discrimination or harassment.

We have taken proactive steps towards building a more diverse team and empowering women in the workplace where we have almost equal gender representation in our executive team.

Employee Feedback

At Moddex we offer our team members a variety of communication channels including our intuitive Human Resources Information System called BambooHR (BHR). Among many benefits of BHR, the system also enables our team members to have a voice at Moddex through our online, Peer Feedback, Self and Manager Assessments and of course regular face to face catch ups with their Manager. This also provides an opportunity for solution focused discussions around future goals, learning & development, and career opportunities, thus being a great channel to share any ideas that may make Moddex an even greater place to work.

BHR allows Moddex to focus on evaluating engagement and productivity with the data our teams provide through their responses, helping us to ensure ways to keep our teams happy and engaged. Along with this, Moddex ‘pulse check’ on a regular basis through BHR with Employee Satisfaction surveys. These results provide the organisation a clear lens on how our team members actually feel about working at Moddex and areas of opportunity that may be highlighted through the Employee Net Promoter Score (eNPS) results. At Moddex we strive to know our team members better, ensure they understand and are on board with the company mission. We aim to provide them the opportunity to do what they do best every day.
