The Sturdie Trade Services formerly The Built Services Group was founded by Matt Smith and Tim Roehl in 2006. Since then, the wholly Australian-owned organisation has achieved substantial organic growth and is now an award-winning, multi-disciplined service provider throughout Australia.
At Sturdie Matt’s the CEO. He works in partnership with the board to make sure we deliver on our promises to the two most important groups of people at Sturdie; our clients and our staff. His passion for the business is infectious and if he’s not in the office you’ll probably find him supporting his boys at the local footy club.
Tim has a dual role where he is accountable for the effective management of allocated projects on time, within budget and to customer expectations and the provision of quality customer service to both internal and external clients. Additionally, Tim audits compliance, quality and efficiency across the Sturdie team.
As COO Ian is there to make things happen. With a eye for detail like few others in the sector he is an important part of establishing and maintaining systems as well embedding infrastructure and processes that ensure our efficient and smooth operations at all times.

Michael evaluates the commercial potential of large contracts and conceptualises the scope of the project, while assisting, reviewing and approving the estimates for project managers and other estimators.
Hayden on role at Sturdie is to keep the strategic direction on track. He works closely with each company and region across Australia to keep us honest and make sure that we are living up to our values in everything we do. While he keeps a close eye on the financial performance, for Hayden making sure we do what we say we are going to do is the most important part.
What do you say about Sharon? She has been such a huge part of the team for a while now. Her job spec says one thing but her passion and value to the business go well beyond this. She does a great job of making the administrative operations of Sturdie run seamlessly and the only thing she loves more than her job is the Adelaide Crows…and her family.
