Allura Partners Appoints CTO for Sustainable Packaging Leader BioPak

BioPak is a multi-national company headquartered in Australia that specialises in sustainable, compostable, and reusable packaging solutions made from renewable plant-based materials. It aims to reduce environmental impact and promote a circular economy.

A founder-led business of 19 years, BioPak partnered with Five V Capital in 2022 to support the business’s growth.

Allura Partners was recently engaged by BioPak to identify a Chief Technology Officer as a result of our deep relationship with Five V Capital and strong track record of placing commercially focused and transformation technology executives.

The organisation sought a technology leader to drive its international expansion, technology roadmap and establish itself as a customer experience leader in the packaging industry. This requires leveraging leading technology solutions with automated operations to build an amazing customer journey from onboarding to delivery arrival.

The search, led by Jake Rose and Angela Borbe, focused on identifying executives based in Sydney within the manufacturing and retail industries who could support BioPak’s growth plans.

The process led to the appointment of Tim Reid, an executive with extensive technology leadership experience across software development, manufacturing, retail, and AI and proven expertise in both strategy and execution. Tim is a natural leader in fast-paced environments. He not only builds and guides high-performing teams but also leads by example.

His passion for emerging technologies to reshape organisational processes and operations will be invaluable to his role as CTO to assist in shaping BioPak's operations and customer-facing practices, continuing to strengthen the brand.
