Steve Mortimer

Steve Mortimer has over twenty-three years of experience within engineering, technical and senior operations positions of large multinational, blue-chip organizations. Beginning his career as an apprentice and honing his craft within eight years in tier 1 automotive, he has since spent his career progressing in a number of senior positions within FMCG and the packaging industry (paper, cartons, and most recently eight years in flexo corrugated). Steve has thrived within every field, claiming a number of “best in class” results and having significant exposure and ownership of all aspects of manufacturing and business operations, a path that has led him into General Management.

Most recently, Steve has been running a key operation of 130 staff within a high volume flexo corrugated facility which serves one of the largest accounts in the industry. A focus on safety, quality, customer satisfaction, cost, and operational efficiency have been paramount. Integral to the success of this placement has been Steve’s client relationships and emphasis on service and innovation, where he has personally influenced product changes to directly benefit clients' operational performance, quality, bill of materials, and overall shelf presence.

Steve’s successes, along with his technical background and recent consecutive award-winning years at EFIA, demonstrate the substance behind his achievements. The most recent Gold for Innovation category qualified him to enter the prestigious Stationers Awards for Innovation Excellence, where he continued on to scoop the best of the best and claim the overall winner of the Product Performance category.
