Meet the passionate people behind The Salary Packaging People.
We’re a small but dedicated team who are always happy to chat through all of your Salary Packaging needs. We provide industry-leading salary packaging products and services in a personalised manner, not a call centre. We are fully independent with our customers being our primary focus.
Brian
Director and Product Manager
Brian uses his 25 years of salary packaging experience and 35 years of finance experience to help develop products that are compliant with business rules and regulations. He oversees the delivery of company strategy and manages supplier and customer relationships. He knows the importance of a personal touch in the current customer service landscape. He believes that when companies outsource to a long term and professional salary packaging company, they can be assured that they have an industry standard and compliant program with little or no taxation risk.
“With the ever-changing and evolving taxation landscape, customers can’t expect to be always up to date with current regulations and legislation, whereas it is the core element of The Salary Packaging People.”
Brian’s superpower is knowing every detail and having the biggest brain in the office.

Glenda
General Manager
Glenda heads up our ‘engine room’, always making sure that the money gets out on time so our customers are supported daily and that we continue to evolve our processes and service delivery. She’s a six sigma black belt and has spent 20+ years in the finance sector in its various iterations. For Glenda, she believes compliance, customer focus and scalability are highly valuable for employers, especially those who don’t fully understand the complexities of salary packaging and may end up creating FBT liabilities for themselves. She wants to change the perception that it is too hard for employers by offering hands-on support - and plenty of it.
“We have a unique ability to adapt while being consistent. We provide salary packaging to employers with one staff member through to employers with thousands and we adapt our delivery methods to their culture, policy and programs whilst maintaining the levels of service we are proud of.”
Glenda’s superpower is keeping it real through tailored support for companies and their employees.

Director and Customer Experience Manager
Dan is the ‘face’ of the Salary Packaging People, always helping new and existing customers understand the many benefits of salary packaging.

Justin
Director and Novated Leasing Specialist
While he may be a specialist, we (and our clients) prefer to think of Justin as our ‘Novated Leasing Champion’. We’re not sure exactly how much money he has saved clients over the years, but it’s A LOT.
Justin is an expert because he knows novated leasing back to front, while his two cups of coffee a day keep him well-fuelled to find the best deals. Justin enjoys helping each and every client understand the benefits of salary packaging and novated leasing.
‘Salary packaging through a professional provider is like getting a free kick with a 50-metre penalty, so you’re crazy not to use it!’
Justin’s superpower is finding the silver lining and a way forward for everyone.
