Get To Know Us
The team at Anmel is small but hardworking. We are a family run business that cares for each member like they are family and we treat our clients like they are part of the family as well. Our operators not only provide the machines and operation no site, they assist in getting the job done in the best possible way and work in with our clients as much as they can to achieve great outcomes. We pride ourselves on our personable and friendly staff who are the most valuable assets that Anmel has.
Fleet Manager / Account Manager
Jodi Chapman
The mother hen that looks after the flock is also the voice behind the phone at Anmel. Jodi keeps the wheels turning. She is great at multitasking and will work the hardest to ensure that we at Anmel are meeting the needs and expectations of our clients while offering the best working environment for the operators. Jodi loves to read and can be influenced by chocolate. Best not to ask too much of her before she has had her morning coffee though…
Maintenance Manager / Operator
Luke Chapman
Luke is the go-to man for everything mechanical. He can fix all the trucks and towers and is the most experienced operator on the team. He does site inspections as well as tower maintenance and operations. If Luke can’t do the job, it can’t be done in the machines we have available. At 6 foot 3” he is used to the high life, in and out of the bucket. Luke is a master of the biggest trucks in the fleet and is the most requested operator on the team.

Operator / Site Inspector
Neil Andison
Usually found in the biggest trucks in the fleet, Neil has worked in many industries including the military, which gives him a wide array of experience and knowledge. He is often referred to as Santa Clause because his trademark white beard which he starts growing in June, makes him look like the big man himself. When Neil is not working 40mts in the air, he is often driving around doing site inspections on sites that needs a professional eye to work out the best size tower for the work needing to be done with the access and conditions available.
Operator
Rick Armstrong
Rick has been with Anmel for over 10 years and has lots of experience in big trees and around power lines and tricky set ups. While Rick’s favourite pastimes include camping and fishing he is more than capable of handling “the big ones” when it comes to trees. Ricks past employment includes being a ‘liney” which gives him a wealth of knowledge when working around powerlines.
Operator
Les Walker
The longest serving Anmel staff member is Les. Les has a great sense of humour and plenty of yarns to spin. He has seen almost every scenario over the years and is extremely comfortable in the two smaller trucks in our fleet. Les has a vast knowledge of how to achieve the best out of the trucks and achieve the best outcomes for our clients. Les is great at electrical work and signs as he squeezes the little trucks into tight spaces.
