Testimonials
Oliver Kietzmann was appointed to the Finance Committee of the Wanneroo Golf Club in 2012. At the time, I was the General Manager of the Club as well as a member of the Finance Committee.
Oliver used his business expertise as well as his knowledge of the golfing industry to provide enthusiastic and constructive input into the successful running of the Club. Later, he was appointed as Treasurer of the Club following the resignation of the incumbent. He provided sound financial guidance to the club and was closely involved in the day-to-day decision making leading to the Club’s advancement and ultimate success in an ‘industry’ suffering a number of trying economic and social ‘conditions’. Oliver resigned from the Club and his position as Treasurer in 2014 following a career opportunity located in the NSW Southern Riverina.
