E46: $5M to $55M: Craig Harris’ ScaleUp Journey at Deputy
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
I spoke with Craig Harris, former CEO at Plexus and COO at Deputy … he has been a key part of some of the most exciting scale-ups in Australia.
Here’s Craig’s story ….
For 25 years, I’ve helped tech companies build at pace. But one journey that stands out—because of what it gave me, taught me, and broke in me—was Deputy.
In four years, we scaled from $5M to $55M. We didn’t do it with smoke and mirrors. We did it with systems, sweat, and a few very sore lessons. I’ll walk you through the path we took to scale, the frameworks that held under pressure, and how we pivoted when COVID sideswiped the entire business.
Not the “forgot your keys again” kind of chaos—but the high-octane, VUCA-drenched kind where companies grow fast, systems break, and you have to lead anyway.
Let’s get into it.
