Reflecting on his decision to join, Mr Canales said the move represented both a personal and professional opportunity.
“I have been looking for a new challenge where I could continue to grow professionally while also sharing the knowledge and experience I have gained over the years. What stood out to me about RWC Western Sydney was its dynamic and fast-growing nature, as well as the strong alignment between its values, culture and my own.
“The opportunity to be part of a driven, high-performing team that genuinely supports and recognises its people was a key factor in my decision. I’m excited to contribute to the ongoing success of the business while mentoring and supporting the growth of others within the team,” Mr Canales said.
