Andrew Carroll's Linkedin Analytics

I’m a proud Geelong native, growing up in a farming family in Paraparap. During my university days at Deakin University, I worked as a bricklayer’s labourer in the local area, gaining valuable insight into the construction industry from the ground up. My formal career in construction began at Hamlan Homes during my fourth year of study, working as an estimator. After seven years at Hamlan homes, I gained some broader experience working on residential developments in Melbourne. I happily came home to Geelong to work for Dennis Family Homes for 10 years and then returning to Hamlan Homes, where I served as their General Manager for nine years. I am passionate about 50’s modernist architecture, rural living, sustainability and disability care. I enjoy the initial energy that sparks from the briefing process with clients and as their build moves through the concept stage. My driving passion, however, is working with our trusted subcontractors and suppliers to see the build come to life. I believe our subcontractors are the backbone of our business, and I love supporting local families and watching their businesses grow along with ours. I’m an active member in the Geelong construction community, I am member of Master Builders, RISE (Regional Industry Sector for Employment) , Northern Futures and GROW Geelong. I am the chair of Geelong Building Careers which is a collaborative initiative of industry, RTO’s, Schools and Councils to support kids entering into the construction industry. I enjoy seeing Geelong and the people within our community grow and prosper.
