M&a's European Getaways

M&a's newly lean Managing Director Scott recently escaped to Europe for a well deserved getaway with wife Georgie and son Harrison. 

Not that we weren't jealous enough already, we now have to deal with the constant Facebook photos!

Here's a sneak peak for you all: 


Looking better than ever Mr McCorkell!


Georgie and Harrison.


Adorable. Maybe one day Harrison will follow in his Father's footsteps!


A well deserved holiday.


Scott & Family (minus eldest son Jack who has been helping out at M&a during Scott's trip)


The ever-so stylish Harrison.


FAREWELL IRISH!


Following suit, our amazing Lexus database expert Alice is bidding us farewell to return to Ireland. 

Her hard work, infectious laugh and let's face it, hilarious accent will be sorely missed around M&a. 

 Thank you for all your hard work Alice, don't forget to write!




I guess it's time to start planning our European getaways so we can visit....

EMC Forum 2012, A Great Success!


In its 9th year running EMC Forum, formally Inform was held at SCEC in Sydney on the 31st July & Crown Towers in Melbourne on the 2nd August.




The event gave EMC’s customers and channel partners the chance to hear from EMC & EMCs vendor partners.

The one day conference showcased the future of IT as delegates descended on the venue and entered under the archway of an LCD animated arc, highlighting the theme of transformation.
The theme for the event, Transform IT + Business + Yourself was carried through to the exhibition area as the three EMC stands towered above the exhibition area, that was filled with 1278 delegates in Sydney and 850 delegates in Melbourne.

With Guest Speakers including Chuck Hollis EMC global CTO, Andrew Dutton VMware APJ General Manager & Les Williamson Cisco APAC VP.

With media coverage in ARN, Click here for the full article  & CRN, click here for the full article. The event was flawlessly executed by the team at M&a whose effort was recognised by EMC’s Senior Marketing Programs Manager, Australia & New Zealand Tom Humphries when he congratulated the team at M&a;

“Collectively as a core component of the Forum program, you all individually stepped up and contributed to the success of Forum last week…thanks for your razor sharp focus on the communications aspect of Forum, project management skills and great detail planning and execution. 25 plus sponsors and a 25% uplift on 2011 meant more effort was required to maintain happy sponsors who are the foundation for our Forum program. I often think you try and learn from the people you work with and enhance yourself as a marketer. I certainly feel as though this is the case...Thanks again Team.”

Farewell to Shermaine



This week M&a has farewelled one of our hardest workers, Shermaine! 

We are all sad to see her go but she has followed her heart (and passion for shopping!) all the way to Shanghai.




Tan and Richie wishing Shermaine farewell at Hilton Hotel's Zeta Bar.

We have also welcomed our new Marketing Coordinator, Oscar. All the way from Barcelona, Oscar is bringing some Spanish flair (and arguments about football...) to the M&a office.




M&a's Training Day


Last Friday was M&a’s second staff training day for the year. Held at Vibe Hotel, the M&a team got into the spirit of things by breaking out their best 80’s gear, animal print and flower-power costumes.

Team Flower Power dominated by winning all the team challenges; Luke’s branding quiz and Richie’s creative trivia as well as taking out best dressed!

Costume of the day definitely went out to Richie.


We’re not really sure what he was but it definitely got everyone laughing!

Call Centre Manager Ben had another cracker of a costume with his skin tight animal print dress. 

Don’t believe us? 

See the photos for yourself!




Thank you to snap-happy Christine for taking some more great photos on the day. 

Catherine and Stephanie

Team Sparkle

Spots and Stripes (Or just huge Kanye fans?)

Team  Animal Print

The lovely Maz, Rimi and Sally

The happy and now well-trained team!
