Mike Retirement

CoggerGurry • March 12, 2024

After almost 30 years of dedicated service, Mike will retire from CoggerGurry at the end of this month. 


As our longest standing employee, Mike has been a constant, familiar face for as long as any of us can remember. 


In the mid 1990’s Mike moved home to the family farm at Penshurst from Geelong with his wife Andrea. He would soon join Tony Gurry at McLarty Archer & Co, initially working closely with the late Ivo McLaughlan and quickly becoming a senior member of the team. 


His background in agriculture gave him the ability to understand the issues faced by his clients and allowed him to connect closely and form wonderful relationships. 


Over the years Mike has been a keen and willing mentor to many staff helping them to find their feet. His years of experience, support and collaboration will be sorely missed by the team. 



We wish Mike all the very best for life after CoggerGurry and a wonderful retirement.

If you've driven past our office recently, you may have noticed some changes underway! We're excited to share that installation of our new Brentnalls Western Victoria signage has commenced. Like many outdoor projects, the recent weather has caused a few delays, but we're looking forward to seeing the finished result once the weather improves! The rebrand represents an exciting new chapter for our firm, while maintaining the same trusted team, local knowledge and commitment to supporting our clients. We think it will be well worth the wait!

Team Fundraiser for The Shaka Project Recently, our team came together for a fundraising morning tea in support of The Shaka Project , an organisation dedicated to promoting positive mental health, wellbeing and meaningful conversations within our communities. It was wonderful to see staff get behind the cause, enjoy some great food, and contribute to an important initiative that aligns closely with our commitment to supporting wellbeing both in and outside the workplace. Thank you to everyone who donated and helped make the morning a success. For more information on The Shaka Project head to their website here
