Carl Daley – Managing Director

Carl is Managing Director at SavvyPlus. He has a track record in innovation and strategic leadership demonstrated over many years in a variety of roles and businesses. 

As a co-founder of Creative Energy Solutions in 2003, the business set a new industry best-practice standard for large corporate consumers, primarily due to the innovative and sophisticated risk managed procurement products and energy accounting services. Carl led the Creative business to become Australia’s premier electricity consultant for large end-use clients. Acquired by the Scottish based M&C Energy Group in 2010 he was then appointed Head of Global Strategy covering operations in the UK, Europe, Asia and USA, up until Schneider Electric’s acquisition in 2012. Carl returned to the Australian business as Head of APAC Operations and then after more than 10 years, decided it was time for a change.

Carl joined the electricity market in 1995 and held many senior positions at Powercor. He led the trading group and was voted by the industry as Trader of the Year in 2001. At the point of sale to Origin Energy in 2001, Powercor’s wholesale electricity hedge book had a substantial favourable mark-to-market value. He remained trading manager at Origin Energy until the trading operation was transferred to Sydney in 2002. Carl then joined Loy Yang Power in a strategy role, until the commencement of Creative.

Prior to the electricity industry, Carl’s previous work history was in public transport. He was appointed as Research Manager at Melbourne Airport undertaking forecasting aeronautical revenue and aircraft activity, tracking airport passenger and visitor movements for infrastructure planning.

For a period of 14 years, Carl worked in Victorian country public transport and Melbourne metropolitan public transport. Appointed as a manager from a relatively young age, he led teams in market research, managing fares, business planning and revenue forecasting.
Innovation and leading strategically talented teams has been a specialty, and now it is a privilege to lead the talented SavvyPlus Consulting team.
