Onetrak celebrates 15 years in Victoria

Onetrak is the Australian dealer for major brands Tigercat, Hidromek, Striker, Anaconda, Fuchs and Dressta. The company has locations in Tasmania, Victoria, New South Wales, Western Australia, South Australia and Queensland.

This year Onetrak celebrates its 15^th anniversary in Victoria. The first Victorian premises were located in Dandenong up until 2016 when the company relocated to 1-5 Marlo Place, in Hallam, a suburb south-east of Melbourne after having outgrown the previous workshop and office spaces.

Onetrak Hallam is always buzzing with activity, the yard is stocked with new equipment and the premises also house Onetrak’s central warehouse distribution for spare parts along with a large rental fleet that comes and goes between jobs.

Rhodes Cousland manages the rental fleet and has been with the company for just under 8 years.

“Onetrak has given me the opportunity to build Onetrak Rental from the ground up. Being a family-owned company, relationships are key to everything we do and at the core of us growing the rental fleet has been the long-standing relationships we’ve built with customers”, Rhodes Cousland, Rental Manager.

Melannie Amani celebrates her own work anniversary this year having reached 10 years with the business.

“I’m working with a great team at Onetrak and know I have the support I need to carry out my job. My favourite part of my role is being able to deal with customers on a daily basis, whether it be an engineer or someone from the accounts department I’ve been able to make so many great connections so far”, Melannie Amani, Rental Co-ordinator.

Onetrak is a small but flexible company with a can-do attitude across the business. One of the key focuses within the organisation is to ensure all staff have growth and development opportunities available to them. Jotham Allwright has held a few different roles within the company.

“I’ve been lucky enough to work my way through a few different roles at Onetrak. Starting as a Field Service Technician working in the Mount Gambier area for several years, this then led into a Service Manager role looking after the service team in Mount Gambier. Now I’m lucky enough to focus on forestry equipment as Onetrak’s National Product Support Manager for Forestry”, says Jotham Allwright, National Product Support Manager for Forestry.

No two days are the same as the company services customers across construction, forestry and industrial material handling.

“The family business culture at Onetrak is what I enjoy the most. Onetrak also deals in some great products across multiple equipment brands within Construction, Forestry, Materials Handling and Mineral Processing Equipment industries. There’s never a dull day and the opportunities are endless. I’ve always enjoyed a challenge, developing product performance solutions and management systems is what I like to do and at Onetrak innovation is always encouraged”, Faysal Berdilek, National Product Support Manager.

Being a national company there is opportunity to travel and see different places, something Sam Powell values in his role.

“I love my role as I get to visit customers all across the country. It’s always amazing how many different ways there are to crush, screen, and move different materials – I’m always learning something new. The best part about working with Onetrak is the teamwork. Everyone’s happy to help, decisions are made quickly and everyone has a voice”, Sam Powell, National Sales Manager Industrial Material Handling.

“Working at Onetrak is exciting and exceptionally rewarding. Being a family-owned business makes us flexible and very responsive. We have a great team and a fantastic support structure here at Hallam and throughout all our other branches. At Onetrak we like to make the work place a fun and friendly environment – We are like one big family!”, Trevor Els, Regional Manager for Vic, SA and WA.

“15 years ago, we took the step to expand the then Tasmanian business into Victoria. Since then, Onetrak has continued to grow into a truly national business with branches, staff, and customers across 6 states of Australia. Thinking back, the move to Melbourne in Victoria was a significant step in the businesses development as it paved the way too many future opportunities that followed. Hallam in Melbourne remains a significant hub for Onetrak’s national business activities with many of our key management, parts and product support teams residing there.

“Today I’m very proud to say we have built a strong team at Hallam and we are still focussed on building further capacity into our service offering in Melbourne to assist our Victorian clients better. Our business plan sees expansion of the rental fleet and our specialist product lines into the market. A service centre in the western Melbourne district is on track to be completed by the end of 2024”, David Hazell, Managing Director.
