Lisa Jane Hooley
Financial Manager of the Entire Group
Lisa; the youngest and only daughter, decided to pursue a career that involved less grease and more brainpower: Accounting. She’s a wiz when it comes to numbers and is the head of the Finance Department of the entire Hydgroup, managing many different branches.
Our Team
After starting out with only 4 people working in our Pinetown office back in 1979, we have gradually grown our company by adding in highly experienced individuals that are willing to put in the hard work in order to see great results.
We've made it our mission to hand pick some of the most diverse human beings to become apart of our extended family, and we are currently a Level 2 Broad-based Black Economic Empowerment (BBBEE) compliant company. We have allocated a great amount of resources towards the empowerment and upskilling of our team members wherever possible.
Our Vision and Mission are pretty simple: We aim to be Kwa-Zulu Natal’s preferred suppliers and Service partners of Hydraulic, Pneumatic and Associated Components, whilst delivering good service on our customers' journey.
