Installation "Crew"

“Zac” Originally from Croatia, Dubrovnik, Zac learned his trade as a young man in his home country starting as an apprentice tiler during his school holidays in the hot summer heat of southern Europe.   Later, Zac left Croatia and learned his professional trade hands on in the United Kingdom renovating houses throughout the greater London area.   Zac immigrated to Australia some fourteen years ago, now an Australian citizen and joined the Murano “Crew” in 2007 during the QVB Project as one of the Murano Walls Subcontractor. Zac brings a number of assets to the Murano Walls Crew including being meticulous, hard working and an astute problem solver.   Comments from Zac “Anything is Possible”.

“Peter” As Aussie as they come and living in Pitt Town some sixty kilometers from the Sydney CBD, Peter can only be described as dependable and on the ball. Peter comes to us with a background as a “gaffer” within the television/movie industry with a myriad of trade skills but a toolmaker by trade.   The Murano Management Crew met Peter on site at the final installation of the store known as Mondail within the QVB Project in April 2008.  As a “ring in” Peter arrived on site with his son, who had mentioned to the Management Crew that he believed his father was perfect for the type of work Murano Walls installs. After watching Peter work throughout the night on a 12 hours shift, the Management Crew immediately took Peter on as a subcontractor.   People meet for a reason and the Management Crew felt Peter, being a “pocket rocket”, could be utilised within the Crew.  Watching Peter in action you may ask where all his energy comes from. Peter brings assets to the Murano Walls Crew including being a “pedantic” installer, a team player and never afraid to call a “spade a shovel”. Comments from Peter "What's next?"

“Anthony” Solid as rock, first generation Australian with an Italian father and a Scottish mother gives Anthony hard earned family values, with an inner need to work harder every day to maintain his family’s life. A Glazier by trade, Anthony began his trade upon leaving school in 1988, but perhaps wondering if this was for him left the industry after five years for a short break driving trucks and working behind the scenes in the automobile industry.   Anthony returned to the glazing industry completing his apprenticeship a with hands on approach with a cumulated experience of 20 years under his belt. Yet again, the Murano Walls Management Crew came to grips with the importance of having a qualified glazier working within the Installation Crew during the QVB Project in 2007.   Anthony, along with his close working companion Jeffrey, completed all the silicone work within the first phase of the QVB Project for Murano Walls.       Excellent achievement and dedication are the words that come to mind considering Anthony and Jeffrey were both working their day job and completing the silicone work on this project during the long hours of the night. Having broken away from the local glazing company and starting his own business in the past six months, Anthony now subcontracts to Murano Walls with his partner Jeffrey.   Anthony and Jeffrey go back to 1998 when Jeffrey as a young lad was introduced as the new apprentice to work under Anthony’s wing.    The pair are like an old married couple and can be found on many a site scrapping with a jovial heart. Anthony brings assets to the Installation Crew such as his dedication and “can do attitude” along with a vast knowledge of different trade skills honed over the past twenty years. Comments by Anthony “the days not over until it’s clocked past midnight”.

“Jeffrey” With an Australian/Maltese background, Jeffrey is a proud young man wanting to make his mark within an industry he has been part of since 1998.   A man with many values, Jeffrey has been able to use his integrity to push his career further and complete his apprenticeship in a tough industry, thus being able to help support something close to his heart – his family. Upon leaving school in year 11 to become an apprentice in a local glazing company under the guidance of Anthony, the two men have forged a relationship worthy of not only a close friendship, but good a team relationship in which they are able to support each other on a daily basis. Murano Walls Management Crew are happy to welcome Jeffrey as one of the subcontractors to the Murano Crew since he has taken the “leap of faith” to join Anthony in becoming independent operators.   Again, Murano Walls Management Crew were able to see Jeffrey in full action upon the QVB Project in 2007/2008 and commend him for his hard work in conjunction with Anthony. Assets Jeffrey brings to the Murano Walls Installation Crew are care, dedication and his team playing attitude to his chosen profession. Comments by Jeffrey “oh well - next”.

"Delor" Australian born, Delor is a fine young man with a talent in the making.  Educated through the Catholic System at Pacific Hill Christian School in the western suburbs, Delor left his secondary studies in Year 11 after partaking in a 6 month pre-apprenticeship Carpentry Course at his local TAFE. Now on the verge of his 18th birthday, Delor is part way through his second year of study to become a carpenter, and has been taken under Zarko's wing to learn the hands on skills within an industry one cannot acquire when studying at TAFE. Delor brings to Murano Walls his enthusiasm to learn how an industry of this caliber works, but continues to be under the very watchful eye of Zarko who pulls him up at the slightest variation on how a tool should be operated in a safe working environment, or the the precise nature of how a glass/operable wall assembly/installation should take place with pride and care. The Murano Walls Management Crew welcomes Delor as their youngest subcontractor to their team.

Look out for the NEW Murano Wheels!!
