Greg Pert began his career as an owner-operator, working with Freightways Bulk Services and later on OD contracts with major oil and chemical industry companies. His background in bulk hazardous goods and tanker operations led to opportunities in New Zealand’s fuel sector — and ultimately, the formation of Tranzliquid. What began as a small fleet has grown into a trusted fuel logistics and cartage service provider, operating nationwide.
Jackie Carroll began her career in safety and compliance as a Dangerous Goods inspector, later joining a multinational distribution safety team responsible for conducting audits across the Asia Pacific region. She went on to advise companies on safety management programmes and brought this expertise into building Tranzliquid’s management systems from the ground up.
