Our Shed Sales Team

Gerard Burmeister

Sales Director

Gerard is part of the 2nd generation of the Burmeister family now at the helm of Trusteel. He first joined in 1985 as an installer and worked through the ranks to the role of Sales Director. A registered builder he knows the ins and outs of steel design and what’s required to create a shed fit for purpose. He’s also pretty adept at steering customers through the permit maze. Personally, he has a love of the outdoors dividing his time between the beach and the golf course.
