Austral's Lesley Leyland Talks Leadership, Development and Culture with With 'Crafting Careers In Ag
April 05, 2021

As General Manager of Quality, Safety and People, Lesley wears many hats at Austral Fisheries - and her leadership and passion to develop the team, invest in Austral's people and enable them to carve their own path are fundamental to ensuring a bright future for the business.

Lesley caught up with the team from 'Picture You In Agriculture' for their Crafting Careers in Agriculture series as an able representative of the fishing industry. They chatted about how Austral Fisheries is well ahead of the curve when it comes to attracting, developing and retaining the best people.

“We’re always looking for people with talent, passion and attitude,” Lesley says. “We can teach a lot of things with on-the-job training and we like to upskill our people, but you can’t teach passion and talent. When we see talent, we will invest in it.”
