DGI has strengthened its workshop capability with the appointment of Glen Marshman as Workshop Manager. Glen brings a depth of operational experience shaped across major infrastructure projects and long-term roles with one of the world’s leading OEMs.

Glen joins DGI after eight years with Komatsu, where he worked in construction parts sales across the mid north coast. Prior to that, he served as fleet manager on the NorthConnex project, overseeing more than 80 pieces of Komatsu equipment. This combination of parts expertise, fleet oversight, and hands-on operational exposure gives Glen a practical understanding of what operators, contractors, and mining clients expect from every component that leaves a workshop.

For Glen, the decision to join DGI was driven by the opportunity to contribute to a global trading business while staying based on the mid north coast. From his first day on site, the quality of the team and the standard of the workshop stood out. Large, well-organised, and clean, the environment reflects the pride DGI takes in its product and the people behind it.

As DGI continues to scale, Glen sees the workshop playing a critical role in lifting capability and supporting customer demand. His focus is on sharpening DGI’s point of difference by raising already strong quality levels and ensuring every component is delivered to a clear and consistent standard.

“I want our customers to have total confidence in what leaves the workshop. That means OEM standard or higher and a finished product that reflects the condition we’ve promised. My role is to support the team, keep tightening our consistency, and make sure every component is inspected, tested and presented to the standard our customers expect for dispatch.”

Glen’s leadership style centres on clarity, communication, and respect. He does not position himself as a boss, but as the conduit between sales and the workshop floor. His priority is building open lines of communication and ensuring that procedures are well understood, documented, and applied day to day.

Developing people is a parallel priority. Glen plans to support apprentices and younger tradespeople through structured pathways, including external training for areas that cannot be covered in house.

Glen’s appointment reflects DGI’s continued investment in people and its commitment to building a workshop that supports the growth of the business globally. As customer demand increases and rebuild volumes grow, strengthening leadership in the workshop ensures DGI maintains the standards the market has come to expect.
