Angus began his career as an assistant Actuary and Underwriter but soon realised a life of mortality ratings and multi-page spreadsheets was not enough to fire his considerable passion.
Moving over to the exciting world of online advertising, working with the likes of ASX.com.au, E*trade Australia and Telstra's , Angus was exposed to a range of interesting, exciting, but short-lived dotcom business models where he was able to cut his teeth in a market fueled by bar-coaster business plans, fantastic budget projections and sky high multipliers.
Once the dust had settled, and after a short stint in international telecommunications, Angus moved on to the exciting world of SMS, IVR and integrated communications, working with the likes of the Commonwealth Bureau of Meteorology; the Department of Infrastructure Planning and Natural Resources; Vodafone and the ABC, developing consumer-facing communications platforms, optimising the huge potential of Internet, SMS and IVR technologies.
Since then Angus focus has been very 'mobile' with roles in Carrier Management at HWW Ltd and News Digital Media.
Currently Angus is the Mobile Advertising Manager for 3 mobile and is preparing for 1999 mark 2. He is also actively involved in mobile industry initiatives such as the Consumer Education Campaign, Export Navigator Project and Advertising Standards Committee.
