Written by Reuben Manning | Jul 14, 2025 4:17:07 PM

Late last year, Xperate expanded into Australia, marking a key milestone in our global journey. Reuben Manning made the exciting move from the UK to Melbourne to spearhead our presence in the region. Since then, he has been making great strides - building strong relationships, delivering exceptional value to clients, and establishing Xperate as a trusted name in the Australian market.

We’re proud to share that our Australian team is growing! Two talented new team members have joined Reuben, further strengthening our presence and reinforcing our commitment to long-term growth and outstanding service delivery in the region.

The positive momentum we’re seeing is a testament to the strength of our offering, the dedication of our team, and the enthusiastic response from clients. Australia is proving to be a fantastic fit for Xperate, and we’re excited about the opportunities ahead as we continue to grow and make an impact.

We’re excited to introduce Melanie Symes-Turner and Danielle Dazkiw, who bring experience and expertise to our operations in Australia.
