With a background in management consulting, David went on to build a large-scale global retail network, before founding Big Red Group in 2017 with the vision to create a multi-brand experience marketplace. Starting with the acquisition of RedBalloon, Big Red Group has since acquired adventure brand Adrenaline, domestic holiday experience provider, Experience Oz to become the largest experience marketplace across Australia and New Zealand. David has held the role of Group CEO since the business’s inception, surrounded and supported by an exceptional senior leadership team, and high calibre talent at all levels of the business.
