Tom Gover

Hello! I’m Tom, the office manager at the Southwest Depot. I've been part of this team since late 2024, but I have spent the last nine years in the forklift industry. I have a great understanding and specialise in material handling parts. I love helping customers and my team daily and have dedicated a lot of my time to being the best at what I do. As the Office Manager, I oversee the daily operations at the Southwest Depot.

I truly enjoy supporting my team in meeting our customers' needs. We as a depot pride ourselves on being adaptable. I strive to lead with grace and intuition. I'm always available for my teammates, eager to listen and help them reach new heights.

I have a deep love for animals, particularly giraffes, and I am passionate about research and conservation projects. I even have a theme of African safari animals tattooed on my arm with. While I’m not a huge film buff, I do enjoy a good war movie as they remind me of my granddad and the experiences he went through. Lot of respect.

In my personal life, I LOVE spending time with my daughter, my partner & her children, it’s all about the fun and memories we make together.  Sitting down and sharing a good family  meal..Bonus if its a Mexican! We enjoy going bowling, where of course I always seem to win! Ha HA! I also love to take my mountain bike out to explore the beautiful forests in our area.

Hmmm...If I could be a superhero, I'd choose to be Ant-Man!

Our depot was acquired by Stacatruc in 2024, formerly known as ‘Blandford Forklifts.’ Since joining the team, I have worked diligently with them and it's remarkable to see how far we’ve come.

We are currently looking to expand our team at Stacatruc Southwest. If you’re seeking a new challenge and want to be part of our developmental journey from the ground up, I encourage you to connect with me, pop in have a cuppa.

If you’re ready to embrace a new challenge and have the ambition to help me build something meaningful and grow, this could be the perfect opportunity for you!
