Chief Commercial Officer
John joined Six Degrees Executive in 2014 to lead the Supply Chain & Procurement team in Melbourne and has since progressed through a series of leadership roles within the Victorian business. Today, as Chief Commercial Officer, he is responsible for the performance of the specialist permanent recruitment business nationally, with a focus on Senior and Executive corporate services appointments.
Over more than a decade, John has played a key role in shaping and growing the Victorian division. He progressed from Manager of Supply Chain & Procurement to Associate Director and head of the Supply Chain & Engineering business, before being appointed State Director of Victoria in 2019. In these roles, he has led Six Degrees’ largest state division, managing teams across Sales, Marketing, Supply Chain, Procurement and Engineering recruitment.
John’s remit has centred on driving commercial performance, developing specialist recruitment capability and strengthening Six Degrees’ position as a leader in the Australian market. He understands that performance and culture go hand in hand, and as a leader, he sets clear expectations, backs his people and invests in developing high-performing teams who deliver consistently strong outcomes for clients and candidates. John values long-term relationships and sees recruitment as a profession built on trust, consistency and accountability.
Outside of work, he loves spending time with his family, is a passionate sports fan, and has travelled around the world.
