Meet the people behind the brands.

Our story

Built on passion. Connected through play.

Bluemouth Interactive was founded in Melbourne in 2003 by David and Sally Provan, turning a shared passion for gaming into a business built around great products, strong partnerships and an industry they genuinely loved. What began as a team of two working from a home office has now become one of the industry’s leading distributors across Australia and New Zealand.

The Bluemouth team consists of brand builders, retail specalists, brand specalists, operators and problem-solvers united by a genuine love of gaming, toys and consumer technology.

We combine local market knowledge, strong retailer relationships and hands-on execution to help brands grow across Australia and New Zealand. We take work seriously - but never ourselves too seriously.

Different backgrounds, different strengths and plenty of shared curiosity keep the team moving forward. The result is a culture built around collaboration, ownership and getting great work out the door.

Built Through Play. Growing Since 2003.

Meet the team

Senior Leadership

Setting the direction, backing the team and keeping the business moving.

Managing Director & Co-Founder

David Provan

People often ask, why did you name the company Bluemouth and why is its logo a cow with blue lips? It's not just fun and creative, but the answer lies in the detail.

Those lips (my lips) are as unique as each and every brand we touch, process we employ, retail relationship we nurture, and consumer connection we build across the region.

As much as I love growing a business with Sally and watching our Bluemouth Family thrive, I also love the freedom of sailing when I can.

Head of Marketing & Co-Founder

Sally Provan

Twenty-three years ago, when David and I founded Bluemouth Interactive, I never imagined we'd grow into a company representing such incredible brands with such a passionate and dedicated team.

One of the most rewarding parts of my role is bringing our team together to collaborate on exciting ideas, creative campaigns, and memorable experiences for our brands. I thrive on turning concepts into polished, impactful marketing and events that connect with people.

My superpower? An eye for detail. Whether it's refining a marketing strategy, perfecting an event, or ensuring every touchpoint reflects our clients' brands, I believe it's the little things that make the biggest difference.

Head of Sales - VGA

Siddhart Sanyal

Commercially driven sales leader with over 20 years of experience in consumer electronics, gaming, toys, and licensed products across Australia and New Zealand. Lover of any sport and travel and a cheeky negroni.

Head of Sales - Toys

Jessie Gardiner

As Head of Sales - Toys, Jessie is all about turning great brands into retail success stories.

WIth a strong understanding of the Australian toy market and a knack for building lasting retailer relationships, she works closely with our key partners to get the right products, in the right places, at the right time.

Finance Manager

Calvin Kua

At the intersection of business strategy and interactive tech, Calvin helps keep the financial engine running at Bluemouth Interactive.

A qualified CPA, Calvin specialises in commercial finance and enterprise resource planning, ensuring Bluemouth’s operations remain agile and scaling-ready.

Driven by a lifelong interest in gaming, technology, and media, he loves being part of a team that brings top-tier gaming gear and interactive experiences to players across ANZ. When he’s away from his desk, you’ll likely find him testing out new camera setups, or diving into a strategy game.

Head of Operations & Planning

Joshua Chilcutt

Great operations should feel effortless. Joshua’s focus is making sure every plan, process and partnership works together to keep the business moving forward.

With a background in engineering, operations and business optimisation, Joshua looks after the journey a product takes from a supplier’s factory to a retailer’s shelf. His work sits upstream, turning data into demand signals the business can act on, which shows up as higher stock turns and the agility to move when the market does. Around that he builds the systems and reporting that let Bluemouth plan on evidence rather than instinct and works closely with our warehouse and freight partners so the gains land on both sides.

A US Marine Corps veteran and a pilot, Joshua is also a husband and father, and by his own description a permanent work in progress.
