> Howard Smith

Howard's consultative management style ensures a high level of communication. It's the unusual mix of Law and Engineering that gives the best insight into Howard's broad based capabilities.


Howard has an excellent ability to understand the business needs of clients and translate them into a deliverable solution. Client objectives remain his objectives, often against other competing outcomes.


Howard is stimulated by the opportunity to bring together groups to create innovative win-win outcomes. The recently completed Croydon Aged Care and Community Health Centre, comprising NSW government, Catholic Healthcare and Bovis Lend Lease is his most recent achievement.


Howard has great depth of understanding of the aged care and health sector and has recently been managing Catholic Healthcare's acquisitions and repositioning its aged care business. He has a significant track record in initiating innovative business models and working in the Not for Profit sector.


He brings to Greengate insight into the workings of Government at departmental and political levels. Howard sees great potential for aligned partnerships with government and the Religious/Not for Profit sector to renew and deliver a variety of social infrastructure.
