OVER 25 YEARS EXPERIENCE

IMTRAM is led by industry veteran Robert Cavallo and managed by General Manager Sonia Whiteman. Sonia has over a decade of experience and is responsible for the growth in the range of IMTRAM products and services.

Peter Hayes, our Sales and Marketing Manager brings a wealth of knowledge and earned respect from his roles at both Austbreck, Siemens and Invensys (among others) and is backed up by Rick Buckland in Business Development.

Our strong service team is headed by Mark Cavallo, who with over 12 years of experience and specialised training with H&K and Secheron products is perfectly placed to lead change in the servicing space.

The IMTRAM team is underpinned by a solid logistics and administration team who all work in harmony as an informed, inclusive group sharing the Cavallo family values to deliver smart solutions for the rail industry.

With a background in accouting at Price Waterhouse and Business Development at Orica and Incitec Pivot Limited, she has helped steer IMTRAM into a more diverse and innovative company.

Sonia clearly doesn’t enjoy getting much rest as her farm, sheep, bee-keeping and lavender distilling ensures the remainder of her free time is fully occupied.

He enjoys the challenge of new projects and takes great pride in the work undertaken in our various service areas.

Mark has a bit of a LEGO addiction and also builds websites in his spare time in case you know anyone who needs one.

PETER HAYESSales & Marketing Manager

Peter is focussed on expanding the product range and service offerings at IMTRAM and helping to establish closer relationships with our existing and new customers.

Peter likes to dress well and always looks sharp. But for some reason he doesn’t like to have his photo taken.

RICK BUCKLANDBusiness Development
Rick started in 2009 and represents IMTRAM in the field. Based in Sydney, he travels extensively throughout Australia and New Zealand to demonstrate new products and has a long history of working with industrial equipment.

She likes crosswords, puns and has an excellent and ever-growing catalogue of Dad jokes at the ready.

He has experience in a wide range of trades, making him a perfect fit for the variety of parts and equipment IMTRAM services and overhauls.

BEN LEWISWarehouse
Ben is responsible for keeping the warehouse running smoothly. He handles inwards and outwards goods, logistics and QA. With some experience in Electrotechnology he helps support Calipri products and also assists with the service department.

Ben is the rock star of IMTRAM, as he is easily mistaken for a tall Ed Sheeran.

Summer brings a wonderful energy and enthusiasm to the team. She likes to keep our kitchen stocked with delicious treats and wonders why are all putting on a few extra kilos.
