Dan Thornton | Co-founder & CEO
Obsessively organised military man who keeps the team focussed and energised despite the fact he never sleeps. He is the brains and brawn of the entire GoldPhish operation. When he’s not working all hours, he runs ultra marathons. He’s the glue that keeps the team together and brings out the brilliance in each and everyone.

Zoé Gardner | Co-founder
A multi-tasking maverick and mum, somehow manages her role whilst running around after three little ones. She oversees our brand and messaging with her no-nonsense approach to design, marketing and tech to ensure cyber security is accessible for all… This is where Cyber Savvy Made Simple was born, of course!

Marius Potgieter | Director of
Software Development
Because 'badass miracle worker' is not an appropriate job title. Constantly solving problems that would make an average human cry, and building solutions to ensure we’re delivering the world-class tech product we promise. Not all heroes wear capes.

Hein Niemand | Product & Development Director
His super power is humanising technology. The beautiful, intuitive and insanely popular design of our platform was not a mistake. Hein ensures the learner, customer manager, and MSP partner experiences are flawless and unforgettable.

Not only is she the nicest person ever, she also has ninja skills with numbers so we don’t mess with this one! She keeps those purse strings well and truly in check by managing all aspects of the GoldPhish finances.

Carla Carboné | Creative Director
Creative to the max, and captures the GoldPhish brand vision in an instant. Whether it’s marketing collateral or learning content design… We barely have to brief Carla before she’s knocked it out of the park! Did we mention she’s brilliant?!

Estéffan Coetzee | Digital Marketing Manager
This is the guy who connects the dots. He’s on a mission to launch our brand into space and by space we mean the Internet! He puts GoldPhish on your radar with his creative technical wizardry.
