email: kppalmer@westnet.com.au
Summary
Keith Palmer has over 20 years success in business management, innovation and marketing, particularly in the areas of construction and technology manufacturing – managing up to 45 staff in both Sydney and Western Australia.
For the past 5 years Mr Palmer has been with Holcim (Australia) Pty Ltd, most recently as Sales & Marketing Manager, and project managed various developments, been involved with national marketing efforts and establishing an Architectural concrete division as a national leader, both in revenue share and proactive Quality, sales and loyalty programmes.
In his time at Holcim he has won major commercial and infrastructure projects, grown their merchandising business from a $100 annual profit to now over $130,000 and increased their architectural concrete sales over 200% whilst at the same time increasing margins and profit.
Employing relentless marketing campaigns whilst combining the incorporation of quality procedures into all operations, Mr Palmer has grown local start-ups into national, award-winning operations and was hand-picked to directly consult to the President & CEO of a USA-based major multinational company.
His companies have been the winner of the WA Business Awards (Total Quality Management) representing Western Australia at the national finals presented by the Prime Minister, a finalist at the WA Industry and Export Awards, Winner Most Innovative Business WA - South West, a bevy of other State and National awards and was only the second south west WA company to achieve ISO Quality Assurance accreditation.
Mr Palmer played a key role in the urban redevelopment of the WA city of Bunbury, developing, constructing and managing the workforces of a number of the "landmark" multi-storey commercial and residential developments in the area. He also conceived Bunbury’s original short-stay accommodation business in which he not only specified design and functionality, but also constructed and then managed these properties.
Keith Palmer is the 1987 WA winner of the Five Outstanding Australians, was critical in establishing south west WA's first internet portal in the early 1990's and has developed a reputation in both his marketing and construction activities, that near enough is NOT good enough, insisting on Quality at all levels whilst driving schedules and maintaining budgets.
Crucial to all roles held by Mr Palmer has been his credo –
“Quality is not an occasional concern but a relentless dedication.”
