The Excellent Becklyn Staff

Obviously, the Becklyn scenario starts with the Doug and Julie story. As principals and Directors of Becklyn P/L, their story is Becklyn’s.

Julie McKenzie, the nice Becklyn Director is a trained nurse by trade and was approached by the local school OSHC committee because she was just coming back into the work force after raising her two children to school age.

Doug McKenzie, the other Director, completed his accounting degree at the University of NSW, and after several accounting and financial controller jobs with the larger firms, CSR, Email and Tubemakers decided to work for himself. Contract work at first in the accounting area, which eventually lead to increased involvement in the newly evolving computer arena. Contracts establishing and maintaining small business computer networks was followed by programming design and writing.

Jodie Buddle, Office Manager, joined the organisation, in September 1997. Coming from a background of office administration, Jodie joined Becklyn to almost double the employee numbers and now has taken on every facet of the business operations. Jodie oversees the rostering and control of our 7 staff members.
