As a professional Master of Ceremonies, I draw on over thirty years experience as an actor on television, stage and film. My years in radio and skills as a voice-over presenter have made me a familiar voice around the country.
I have broad exposure to industries as diverse as automotive, retail, community service and finance. Jobs have included company launches, charity gala events and national conferences. Add to this, radio and television commercials, training videos, corporate communications and interactive CD-Roms and you have an MC capable of delivering your message to any audience with style and aplomb.
“Projected a highly professional manner at all times, ensuring that this occasion occurred without a hitch.”
GJK Cleaning

“You brought cohesiveness and harmony to the event… created a warmth that captured our vision…the experience you brought was a contributing factor to the success of the evening”
City of Bayside
“Added to the professionalism of the evening… managed our tight schedule well”

I often joke that my education has been gathered in the field – and the fields have been many and varied. My career has led me through such diverse areas as graphic design, stage management, building, radio journalism, hospitality, voice-overs, transport, acting and most recently corporate MC work, as well as personal fitness training.
During the 90’s, I may have visited your lounge rooms several times a week as the on-screen co-presenter of the "Ford Today" infomercial series. Other clients include Holden, Australia Post, BHP, Shell, NAB and Victoria Police. My voice has been the one delivering good and bad news on a number of radio stations over the years, including the ABC, 3AW, 3KZ and the now-defunct 3AK.
More recently, you might have seen me on television in a number of episodes of Neighbours, on the made-for-TV CBS movie “I Love Lucy”, or in the Navigator ad where seven of me had a conversation around a table! I like to think, though, that there is only one Lachlan Macdonald – a masterful MC with the voice to match!
