About Us
Build safer, smarter, better — together.
We started this journey with one thing in mind, to build a software solution that would make safety, compliance and site operations so easy, it would change the way companies think and manage their sites. We have real-world construction and safety experience in our ranks, we value the industry, and we know that solid relationships are the foundation of success.
Founded in Melbourne, Australia in 2015, HammerTech is now used by over 500+ leading construction companies worldwide. In April 2023, we formally launched our operations in the UK and Europe, expanding our mission to serve the construction industry on a global scale.
We're on a mission to consolidate safety, compliance and site operations into one platform to provide everyone with greater visibility, make trade partner management easy and transform safety in construction.
Leadership Team
Ben Leach
Chief Executive OfficerI have always enjoyed working in construction. It is a dynamic, fast moving industry and the diversity of people involved makes it an exciting industry to be apart of. Couple that with emerging technology and improving business processes and I have found my place in the ConTech space. Our aim is to help make job sites safer by working with clients, industry and tech partners to develop solutions and insights that drive better outcomes. I am also passionate about 'life' balance and endeavour to instill this philosophy into our business, staff and family life.
Wynand Stassen
Chief Financial Officer & VP Corporate ServicesAfter qualifying as a Chartered Professional Accountant with Deloitte, I joined SaaS-based Kinaxis where I served as Controller through its IPO on the Toronto Stock Exchange. Subsequently I served as CFO at Rockgarden Cannabis through its capitalization and sale to Auxly, and as CFO at Embotics through its capitalization and sale to Snow Software. I joined HammerTech at a very exciting time. The Company’s ambitious and energetic team has built a quality product, which provides a hard ROI to a large but under-serviced market through a repeatable sales process – all ingredients required for big success!
James Harris
Chief Technology OfficerI'm passionate about building powerful SaaS platforms that empower people to focus on their core business.
With over 18 years industry experience in both software development and IT operations and in an age where innovation is happening at a breakneck pace I understand the first and foremost: performance, reliability and security are the core foundations of any successful product.
When not at my desk, you'll find me running trails through the Dandenongs and Yarra Valley.
Michael Goldstein
Chief Customer OfficerI’ve worked for the past 25 years in software with the last 12 years in the SaaS based construction technology space. A majority of my time has been spent working with customers to help ensure they receive the maximum value from the application while receiving the best implementation/customer success experience possible. At HammerTech the implementation, success, and support teams’ goal is to help our customers utilize the application in the most effective manner to ensure their workers, subcontractors, and site visitors get home to their families and friends safely. To help achieve this goal, the team will always be readily accessible, possess expert domain knowledge, and provide exceptional support.
Outside of work, I enjoy swimming, biking, running, spending time with my family in SE Michigan, and hanging with my dog, Zoey.
Georgia Bergers
Vice President MarketingI didn't think there was anything more dynamic than a construction project team until I was encouraged to consider a career in marketing. Following a brilliant 10 years in construction working on major infrastructure programs like the London 2012 Olympics, I'm now a proud marketer for one of the most dynamic companies in construction tech.
Of the HammerTech values, authenticity is the most important to me. I'm motivated to create a more equitable industry and built environment that enables people to show up, challenge the status quo and share ideas.
