Carmyn Jane (CJ)
McEwan

Managing Director and Property Manager

CJ grew up in Auckland but her mother was from a high country sheep station in Central Otago, so she has always had one foot firmly planted in the South Island.  Having attended St Cuthbert’s College, she studied at AUT and Tauranga Hospital before heading overseas.

This 20 year overseas experience created the opportunity for CJ to build a 12 year career in international licensed merchandising, being intellectual property and trademark management.  This industry is a fascinating mix of stringent legal and financial management, where CJ was responsible for brands including Marvel Entertainment, Universal Studios, Discovery Channel and Lion King to name a few, throughout southern Africa.

In 2010 CJ returned home to NZ permanently, just as the NZ property market was recovering from the Global Financial Crisis.  Having owned rentals overseas, assessing property opportunities upon her return was second nature, and led to her investing in NZ property investment training.  Saltark Property Management evolved from this foundation.  

CJ’s goal is to build a property management company with an excellent reputation that is still in business and thriving in 50 years’ time.

Jacqueline (Jax) Baker

Our administrator and accounts extraordinaire, Jax was with her previous employer for 15 years and only Covid-19 created the need for a move. Starting as a secretary, Jax worked in general administration taking on numerous functions, before her love of numbers moved her into Accounts Payable, then Accounts Receivable and Credit Control which she now manages as part of the Saltark Team.

Now Jacqui has taken our Saltark Maintenance Work Order management under her control and is doing an excellent job. Knowing our Saltark tenants and properties for the past few years, when she was offered the job of maintenance project management she loved the idea, and has proved her worth 10 fold since then, dedicated and diligent she has her finger on the pulse of all of our rental property maintenance requirements.

Margielyn Andal

Margielyn joined our Saltark team with a wealth of administration experience and excellent people skills. She has completed her REINZ intro to Property Management training course, so she offers knowledgeable administrative support to the Saltark team. Her strong attention to detail and organizational skills led to what she calls her “dream job” at Saltark Property Management as Office Administrator, where she has proven herself an awesome member of our team. She is dedicated to providing excellent world-class customer service for our owners, tenants, and everyone she works with.”
