Leading by Example

Bill Hatswell Owner

Since he founded the Craftsman Group of Companies  Bill Hatswell has been a man on a mission.

First, it was to modernize and clean up the autobody repair industry, bringing in professional standards and innovative practices to the company that now boasts more than 40 locations across North America, making it the largest independently owned collision repair organization in Canada.

Rick Hatswell MBA

The CEO’s son, Rick, progressed from detailer to auto body technician, shop manager then to the Craftsman Groups head office as general manager while completing his MBA. As President, he is responsible for overall operations and sales development. He also chairs the collision repair division of the Automotive Retailers Association.  In his spare time Rick can be found mountain biking with his wife and two kids preparing for the Ironman Triathlon or his next international motorcycle rally.

Greg Hatswell BCOM

After graduating from Sauder, he chose to learn the development business from the ground up, taking time to learn real estate and land development, while taking the time to learn his craft as a general contractor and managing a number of projects. He leads with a personal, people-focused approach to business. Greg’s love of the outdoors started at an early age and when he’s not working you will find him in the mountains backcountry skiing, camping, hiking or rock climbing. The wilderness is where he goes to find inspiration.

Holger Laakmann, BSc CPA/CGA

Holger has worked in the automotive industry most of his life and has been with The Craftsman Group since 2001. He’s responsible for the planning, implementation and managing of all the financial activities of the company, including business planning, budgeting, forecasting and administrative functions. When not crunching numbers you will find him ripping up the slopes in search of fresh powder.

Mike O’Callaghan, COO

Mike’s skills on the technical and people side have not gone unnoticed. Starting as a Craftsman Collision body technician in 1987, he was promoted to Estimator, Production Coordinator and then Manager in 1988. In 2011, he joined the Craftsman Groups head office as Operations Manager, was promoted to GM of Operations and is now COO. When not in the office building a successful team, you’ll find Mike pursuing his love of sports supporting youth and his sons as a coach for both hockey and box lacrosse.

Mark Greenberg is the Vice President of Business Development at the Craftsman Group of Companies, where he leverages his technical, sales, and business expertise. He began his journey with Craftsman in 1988 as a body technician, took a decade-long detour into real estate in West Vancouver, and returned in 1999. After managing two locations, he spearheaded the launch of Craftsman’s first site in Mainland China, eventually rising to General Manager of Business Development and now Vice President of Business development. Outside of work, Mark enjoys building motorcycles and spending time with his family and dog, Charlie.
Harinder Sindhar, Director of IT

Armed with an education from BCIT, several Microsoft certifications and more than 25 years of experience, our IT Director helps us maintain our legendary customer service by making sure all our shops and systems are tightly connected and running smoothly. Away from Craftsman HQ he’s still got cars on his mind, evidenced by a Ferrari replica he built out of Lego with his son. Other family activities he enjoys include board games, cards, travel (especially to Hawaii’s Big Island), and older (pre-2010) movies.
