On the pod today, Pete and Az sit down with Greg McGee, GM of Ryse Constructions. Greg is a top bloke who’s seen it all and was happy to share some of his insights.

From building Billy carts as a kid to running 49 homes at once as GM of Ryse Constructions, Greg’s story is packed with real lessons for anyone in the game.

They cover a heap:
– What it really takes to be a good builder
– Learning the hard way about ego, cashflow, and balance
– How Greg helped set up a new build arm from scratch
– Why passion and honesty still matter more than margins
– And what he’d tell young tradies (and future GMs) coming through now.

There’s no fluff here just honest, sharp insight from someone who's copped a few scars and still loves the work.

One standout? Greg reckons if your first question in a job interview is about money, you're coming at it all wrong. That mindset’s served him well through 40+ years in the trade.
