Frank Maiolo - Research Development Manager

Frank started his professional life in business administration holding financial and management accountant positions and ultimately a Company Secretary position for a large Australian public company. His Computer Science qualification eventually led him to the IT industry where he designed systems for management of aeronautic components, freight management, retail and other industries.

His involvement with dealerships began 26 years ago. During this period he led the design, development and delivery of three retail dealer management system evolutions. His most satisfying achievement has been to deliver many technical firsts; under Frank’s direction Auto-IT’s dealer management system products continue to hold technical leadership in many areas.
