The staff at Buckle are passionate and take great pride in their work. They are by far Buckle’s most valuable resource.
Our management team
Our management team is highly experienced in their respective fields but also in the leather and accessories industry:
David Randall is the Managing Director and originally joined Buckle as Vice Chairman and Business Development Director in 2002. He is the son-in-law of former director, Peggy Morris – granddaughter of the company’s founder, Alick Buckle. A proven and successful businessman, Randall was the recipient of the United Kingdom’s “Entrepreneur of the Year” award in 1994. In 1997, he moved to Sydney and acted as director and owner of several other Australian companies prior to starting at Buckle.
Mike Turner joined Buckle in January 2007 and was subsequently appointed Deputy Managing Director. Mike has over thirty years of manufacturing experience, including volume component manufacturing and more detailed bespoke manufacturing. His experience includes systems and process flow and has had significant exposure to change management control. His previous experience as a Director, including board level appointments in numerous companies, brings significant management depth to Buckle.
Kenneth Lau joined Buckle in 2007 as the Finance Manager. Kenneth has worked across many industry sectors holding such roles as a trust accountant, tax accountant and management accountant.

Our craftspeople
Buckle’s manufacturing team is the hub of the Buckle operation. The team is enthusiastic and their great attitude is reflected in the end product. A lot of effort and time is placed into making and crafting the perfect belt. In fact each of the 27 craftspeople handles the belt before it reaches the store.
Our sales and customer service team
Buckle’s sales and customer service team are helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. Not only do they understand the products and are able to assist with your sales enquiries, but they can also offer assistance with personalising a suitable retail range for your store.
Our back of house team
The team that ensures the back of house operations run smoothly allows the rest of the organisation to operate at its peak. They are responsible for operations such as accounts payable and receivable, purchasing, production planning and IT.
