Mitchel Liddell
Managing Director
Mitchel Liddell is one of the Directors at Martu Waru. Mitch originally comes from a trade background where he became a qualified tool maker/CNC machinist in 2006 as an 18-year-old. Mitch excelled in this field and was entered into the Apprentice of the Year competition as a 16-year-old boy competing against men, for which he received a commendation.
Mitch and his wife Sasha started their first business in the manufacturing industry, Bluechip CNC Machining, which they are still running successfully. Mitch also moved off and expanded his horizons by moving into other industries and studying to receive his Electrical Contractors Licence, Cert IV & Diploma in Building & Construction & NACE 2 coating inspectors’ qualifications along with others.
In 2022 Mitch opened another company with two business partners, Bluechip Industrial Services, a fabrication, electrical & site services company. Bluechip services the mining, services and agricultural industry, and identified a need for full package service with 100% focus. As a result, Bluechip has seen exponential growth in its two short years of trading.
The key strengths Mitch brings to Martu Waru are his extensive knowledge of the building & manufacturing industries, his ability to identify shortfalls in a market and act on them swiftly and with purpose, his excellent business and people management skills, and his years of managing and directing companies in different industries.
