First stops are the United States and Canada, after that the world is his oyster.   Mal operates our larger crawlers and has been an asset on every project from South Flank, Iron Bridge, Pluto to the FMG shutdown circuit commented Heavy Lift Project Superintendent, Matt Sprague.   “Mal’s a super easy-going guy, nothing is ever a problem. He’s relaxed and has been an exceptional mentor to his team.”  “He turns up, gets the job done, and you just know you can rely on him – you’re in safe and capable hands.”   “We’re going to miss Mal in Heavy Lift; he’s been an asset to the team. And, I think we’re not the only ones that will miss Mal, the industry will too,” finished Matt.    On behalf of Monadelphous, thank you and good luck Mal. If you do get bored or change your mind we’ll find a place for you!   ![](https://ecnewsmonadelphous.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Mals-retirement-1024x683.png) *Mal in action (hidden inside the cab of the crane).* ## Leave a comment Previous Post A message from Lorna Rechichi, Mar '23 Next Post The unique challenges of working in the Melbourne City ## Recommended For You [![](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/hubfs/Senior%20leader%20headshots/Lorna%20Rechichi%20-%20Thumbnail.png)](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/on-the-hook/a-message-from-your-general-manager-lorna-rechichi-feb-2023) [Leadership Updates](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/on-the-hook/tag/leadership-updates) 2 Min Read ### [A message from Lorna Rechichi, Feb '23](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/on-the-hook/a-message-from-your-general-manager-lorna-rechichi-feb-2023) As we hit the end of February, I am sure most of us are wondering where the first two months have gone!
