Who we are
Meet our team
With a family history in retail it was always going to be difficult for Raelene to break the mould and work in another industry. After finishing high school Raelene spent the best part of three years travelling the world from her base in Italy before eventually returning home in 2000 to work with her brother Brad in The Hopper Group. At that stage The Hopper Group consisted of the Stop and Shop at Kangaroo Point and the New Farm News on Brunswick St which Raelene ended up running with her partner Jon. Raelene has learnt the business from the bottom up and there isn’t a role in the company from front end through to MD that she has not filled or does not understand intimately. This experience, her work ethic, sense of humour and passion for the industry have contributed immensely to the growth and ongoing success of HG Retail.
Nic started out in retail as a shy 14 year old gaining experience in a number of different industries including fashion, fast food and independent retail. She quickly realised the retail industry was for her and complimented her on the job education with tertiary qualifications, graduating in 2002. From there it was onto Eagle Boys as HR Manager before making the transition back to independent retail with Metcash in 2005, where she spent five years before joining the HG Retail in 2010. Nic is happily married with two youngsters and attributes her long career in retail to her love of people and always having a positive outlook.
