About SIDEOPS

Aqhib brings a rare combination of entrepreneurial grit, operational precision, and forward-thinking market insight to SIDEOPS. He made his first property investment at 18, built and sold a hospitality business for significant profit, and simultaneously oversees a logistics company operating across Brisbane and the Gold Coast. His career spans hospitality, logistics, and sales, and he stays at the cutting edge of AI tools and market trends, applying that knowledge to how SIDEOPS operates and grows.

At SIDEOPS, Aqhib leads operations and business development, ensuring every client engagement is backed by strong systems, smart technology, and a relentless focus on results. He is known for balancing competing priorities, solving problems creatively, and building high-performing teams that deliver.

Shannyn is one of Australia's most accomplished business consultants and strategists. After building a successful career spanning sales, business development, and senior leadership, she founded and grew a thriving property management and co-hosting business, a testament to her ability to build operational excellence from the ground up. Shannyn has since become a sought-after consultant to business owners, CEOs and COOs, helping corporate leaders sharpen their operations, build stronger teams, and scale with confidence.

Her deep expertise in the corporate world, combined with a customer-first philosophy honed across two Australian proptech start-ups and an international company where she served as Head of Strategy, makes her the driving force behind the SIDEOPS methodology. Shannyn designs the frameworks and consulting processes that ensure every remote professional we place truly elevates the businesses we work with.

Ryyan brings a perspective that sets SIDEOPS apart. Starting out as a light mechanic at a dealership in New Zealand, he worked his way up to become a Heavy Machinery Engineer, now working FIFO in the mining sector. It was through years of hands-on work in trades and industry that Ryyan saw firsthand how the right support staff can make or break an operation and how hard it is for trade and small businesses to find reliable, skilled people without blowing out costs. That insight became the seed for SIDEOPS.

Alongside Aqhib and Shannyn, he co-founded the business with a clear mission: to give AU and NZ businesses including those in trades, logistics and industry access to exceptional remote professionals who genuinely elevate how they operate. Ryyan leads all sales across trade and small business in Australia and New Zealand, and his on-the-tools background means he speaks the language of the businesses he works with.
