Founder and CEO, Troy Rugless
Troy founded PSG Holdings in 2011 and currently resides as PSG Holdings Managing Director and CEO. Troy is involved in business development, Indigenous business mentoring and undertakes the role of Company Cultural Leader. Troy ensures that PSG Holdings thrives based on a culture of respect, humility, ingenuity and hard work and that these values pervade all aspects of the business.
Troy’s Indigenous heritage is from the Wiradjuri people who were the first inhabitants of Central Western NSW. He also has Torres Strait Islander heritage from his Grandfather’s family who originated from the Western Islands of the Torres Strait.
Troy is a former professional rugby league footballer who played for the Eastern Suburbs and South Sydney before moving overseas to play for the London Broncos. He has coached multiple teams in more recent times. After his career was ended by injury, Troy followed in the footsteps of his father and joined the NSW Fire Brigade where he served for 20 years and was involved in representing the service at Indigenous careers expos. Having grown up in the La Perouse area of Sydney, around family members who were involved in the construction industry, Troy developed a passion for building, which led to the creation of PSG Holdings and generating opportunities for Indigenous people across a variety of industries which in turn enabled Troy to support a number of community groups in his local area.
Troy observed that Indigenous Australians have role models in sport, the arts, academia and politics – but very few in business. Troy aims to be a role model and set an example for Indigenous owned businesses and business people.
