The Directors

Bryden Halloway

MANAGING DIRECTOR

Bryden has worked in the freight forwarding, customs and logistics industry for 20 years.​ Prior to establishing Compliant Business Processing, Bryden held a GM role with a multi-national forwarder.​ In that capacity he instigated, implemented and oversaw the offshoring of a variety of operational, accounting and customer service tasks utilising 3rd parties in Indonesia, China, India and the Philippines and learnt much about the pitfalls and the intricacies of managing an offshoring project from the very beginning. ​Having a wholesale customs brokerage business exclusively servicing freight forwarders, Bryden realised that it made sense  to  establish Compliant’s own offshore team to assist with data processing activities.   ​It then became apparent that Compliant’s freight forwarding customers and others in the logistics supply chain would derive value from Compliant’s industry experience and our business infrastructure in the Philippines.  ​And so Compliant Business Processing was created, servicing freight forwarders, 3PL’s and transport operators with labour alternatives from the Philippines. ​

Matthew Brown

SALES DIRECTOR

Matt has more than 23 years of experience within the international logistics, customs and supply chain industry. Matt started his career in 1999, joining a small Customs Brokerage in Sydney, where he developed a keen interest in the world of international trade. Matt continued his career within multinational freight forwarders eventually moving into sales positions with landside service & equipment providers before moving into International Logistics recruitment space in 2008.

Matt went onto to establish his own supply chain focused recruitment agency in 2010, which grew into one of the largest providers of staff to the International Freight and Logistics industry in Australia. Whilst initially resistant to the Outsourced BPO service model, Matt sold his recruitment agency in early 2018 and joined CBP after reflecting on the pain points that many clients of his had identified over the years and realising that a strong BPO partner could contribute significantly in eliminating those pain points, and in doing so provide substantial savings and increased capabilities to industry members across the globe. ​
