Andre Pudebat
Business Sales Specialist, LINK Melbourne

With decades of experience in the manufacturing, construction and real estate industries, Andre Pudebat has enjoyed a successful and varied career. But whether overseeing production, working with the biggest names in construction, or heading up a medium-scale business, one thing is the same. Andre’s approach is grounded in honesty, integrity and a passion for success. Starting out in his native France with studies in psychology, Andre has lived around the world, built a successful business, and risen to executive roles in the corporate world.

A citizen of the world, Andre moved first to America where he became a skilled craftsman, then to Melbourne’s inner-north where he spent two decades building a high-end architectural joinery business. Stepping into the corporate world, Andre rose to National Business Development Manager with a major hardware producer and distributor, where he managed relationships with major construction brands (including commercial developers, Lendlease and residential volume-builders, Mirvac Homes) before forging a strong new path as an awarded agent in residential real estate.

Across this national and international career, Andre has developed a strong understanding of the processes that drive manufacturing businesses of all sizes and at all stages of the business cycle. He has accrued a strong knowledge of the financial structures and drivers of small, medium and large scale businesses, and he has worked closely with clients, vendors and buyers at all levels, from the shopfloor, to the showroom, to the boardroom, to the living-room.

A natural listener with a talent for communication, Andre makes the most complex business issues understandable and understands the stresses that can come with even the simplest business sale. Andre’s deep business intuition and wide lived experience align with his exceptional skills in marketing, sales and negotiation to make him an invaluable asset. Above all, it is the honesty and integrity that are central to Andre’s approach that add real value as he guides his clients on their path to success.
