Evan Davey

Operations Manager - Batemans Bay

I first started as a Process Attendant working out on the processing line, learning what really makes an Appellation Oyster. I was promoted to Factory Foreman and completed my Certificate III in Seafood Post-Harvest Operations. Eager to learn more, I became more involved with the day-to-day operations all the way from farm to table. Fast forward 4 years later, I am now the Batemans Bay Operations Manager and currently enrolled to complete my certificate IV in Seafood Post-Harvest Operations.

Operational Compliance Lead

I joined AOC as their Operational Compliance Lead after a long career in the Fisheries and Marine compliance field within State Government regulatory agencies. The step across to private industry was a breath of fresh air, particularly working with a team of highly motivated individuals in a company leading the way in NSW aquaculture industry. The dynamic nature of AOC’s operations allowed for diversity in the role and an opportunity to constantly build and improve all operational aspects of the business. Never a dull moment.
