In the little time he has when not doing that, he has a soft spot for old Italian cars and is kept busy with his 1974 Alfa Romeo.

He enjoys good food and wine and is an avid traveller and the opportunity to do that with Canary is something he cherishes.
Matt is also a bit of a chocoholic purposely scouring out all the new latest editions of NZ’s favourite Whittakers intending to hold them as collector items, only to find they are empty packets within the day!

To say food is Lindsey’s passion is an understatement, from eating at a Michelin Star/Three Hat restaurant to a hawker stall in an alley way there is nothing she will not try at least once... Her other favourites in life are golf, fishing, shopping and entertaining friends and family. Being from South Africa, most of her family is on the other side of the world so spending time with her family and friends in NZ is a very important part of her life.

Shaun Blackbourn
Manufacturing Demand Planner
Shaun's role involves planning and monitoring all product that we make on site. He does his best to juggle our manufacturing schedule to ensure that our customers are never left wanting.

His previous experience in purchasing roles and as the Stores Supervisor are invaluable and means that he has a broad understanding of the business.
Shaun’s favourite thing about working at Canary is the friendly banter which never ends – and is typically at his expense!
If Shaun isn’t at work he is either on the indoor bowls mat in his granddad slippers, hanging out with his family or watching anything to do with sports.

Morgan Clearkin
ICT Services
Morgan manages the major ingredient and packaging suppliers for Canary and is the IT Systems coordinator (aka IT Guru) - sometimes he just needs to stand next to you and your software will start working again. Magic! However, if you ask him, he'll tell you his secret is normally turning if off and on again!
Morgan enjoys working for Canary because his role is broad and allows him to work with everyone in the company - no day is the same. Just the way it should be!
When Morgan isn't working he can either be found hiking up a mountain somewhere or chowing down on a bag of lollies. He isn't quite sure whether he hikes as an excuse to eat or eats because he hikes a lot!

Technical Team
Margaret McCracken
Senior NPD Technologist
Margaret is our very own butter chef at Canary and is always bringing us buttery treats to try. As a career Food Technologist, she has over 25 years experience in the food industry and it certainly shows. She manages all new product development from experimenting in her kitchen to commercial trials and product improvement.
Margaret’s favourite thing about Canary is that everyone works closely to quickly respond to our customers. In her own words, ‘we often start with something that seems impossible, but we nut out a way to get it done’.
Always looking for an excuse to be outside, Margaret enjoys spending time in her garden (which is a self-described ‘messy riot of scented flowers, wildlife and fruit and veges’), water skiing on Lake Karapiro or – when she does go inside – trying out new recipes.

In his free time, Mat enjoys spending time with his partner, DIY-ing, binging on movies and playing with his ‘gravity defying’ cat as she does backflips and attacks the air even when nothing is there.

Joseph Te Hira
Production Manager
Joe coordinates the day-to-day production by ensuring that we have the right people in the right places in our factory to produce quality products that we can be proud of. Joe brings over 20 years’ experience in the food industry from manufacturing meals for Jenny Craig to loading hoppers of wet fish to be filleted.
Joe’s favourite thing about working at Canary is that it gives him the ability to brag about the quality products that we make – especially the Lewis Road Butter. He is a grounded leader in the factory but never misses an opportunity to quote Jerry McGuire in his team meetings.
When Joe isn’t working, he enjoys watching his kids sporting events, chilling out with the odd gaming session and reading. His top three books are ‘Be Your Best’ by Steve Price, ‘Dan Carter: Skills and Performance’ and ‘The E-Myth Revisited’ by Michael Gerber.

Outside of work Richard can be found playing golf, cricket, football, surfing or fishing (whew!). And if you can't find him there, you might catch him making craft beer in his own small brewery (that he made himself).

Accounts Assistant and Administration
Jaimee is our friendly neighbourhood accounts payable lady and processes the bulk of the day to day invoices on top of payroll, HR duties and Leadership Team support.
