Well-known StockLive sales manager departs to take on new career

StockLive will bid farewell to one of its driving forces in mid-February, with Tammie Robinson set to hang up her StockLive cap in pursuit of a new opportunity within the livestock industry.

Ms Robinson, who has been StockLive's sales manager - QLD/NT for the past two-and-a-half years, will leave the role to join the Grant, Daniel & Long (GDL) stud stock team as an agent.

"In my time with StockLive, we've seen online selling become more and more popular, and it's been a privilege to work with livestock producers to ensure they're accessing all marketing options available to them," Ms Robinson said.

"I have loved every facet of my role at StockLive, but the most fulfilling part has been working with clients to ensure the online component of their sale runs smoothly.

"While I'm sad to be leaving my clients and such a wonderful team at StockLive, I'm excited by the opportunity that has been offered to me, and I look forward to continuing to work with the many people I've built enduring relationships with during my tenure at StockLive."

StockLive general manager Libby Tyrell said while the team was saddened by Ms Robinson's departure, they were grateful for her contribution to the business.

"Tammie brought extensive industry knowledge and experience to the role and has been a driving force behind our business growth in Queensland and the Northern Territory in recent years," Mrs Tyrell said.

"She has also been a great mentor to our team members, and we are excited for Tammie as she steps into this next challenge.

"We are fortunate for having worked with Tammie over the past two-and-a-half years and look forward to working with her in her new role at GDL."

Ms Robinson's departure from the StockLive team has been the catalyst for the business to implement some changes to the operational structure, which Mrs Tyrell said would see two familiar faces servicing clients in the north.

"Kate Parker, who is well known among our Queensland clients, will step into the role of northern sales representative, while Ben Beling has been appointed livestock sales administrator," Mrs Tyrell said.

"It is a slight change in the entire business structure; however, it reflects a refined focus on servicing and supporting our livestock vendors and buyers across the region.

"With extensive experience working with Queensland clients, both Kate and Ben have built strong industry relationships and remain committed to providing top-tier support.

"Collectively, they will continue to offer exceptional service for our clients as one of StockLive's key operating values."
