Perth, Western Australia – Sober Check, one of the leading providers of alcohol and drug testing solutions across Australasia, today announced the appointment of Vincent McMillan as Business Development Manager.
This appointment is a cornerstone of Sober Check’s second-phase expansion into the Australian market following its successful acquisition of Perth-based CMM Technology.
McMillan joins the team to spearhead market growth and manage the increasing demand for sophisticated workplace safety and hydration technology across Australia.
His appointment follows the recent transition of Louis Foster to the role of CEO of Australian operations, signalling a rapid acceleration of Sober Check’s Trans-Tasman growth strategy.
“We didn’t just come to Australia to maintain the status quo; we came to revitalise the industry with the same proactive focus on client success that made us the market leader in New Zealand,” said Louis Foster, CEO of Sober Check Australia.
“Vincent McMillan is the key to managing this growth, as we consolidate our footprint in Western Australia and look to expand across the country; his role is to ensure that as we scale, we don’t lose the personal connection and technical expertise that our clients depend on. We are building a team that can support the stability of big business while maintaining the responsiveness of a close-knit partner.”
For over 20 years, Sober Check has dominated the New Zealand market through a “high-touch” relationship model.
With the integration of CMM Technology’s Western Australian mining and industrial footprint now complete, the focus has shifted to modernising Australian workplace safety through proactive client success models.
The appointment comes at a critical time as Australian safety regulations and employer “fitness for work” expectations evolve.
Sober Check is positioning itself as more than a supplier, focusing on Workplace Health & Wellness Technology, including:
- Advanced drug and alcohol testing: Compliant, easy-to-use certified solutions.
- Hydration monitoring: Specialised technology for the mining, construction and transport sectors.
- Proactive account success: Moving away from “one-off sales” to long-term safety partnerships.
“The demand for workplace safety solutions across Australia is growing, but the market is looking for a partner, not just a product provider,” Mr. Foster said.
“With Vincent McMillan on board, Sober Check is ready to bring our expertise to the doorstep of Australia’s largest mining, industrial and economic hubs.”
