Landing a CSIRO tender is tough enough, even if you\u2019re not a 23-year-old entrepreneur with a business that\u2019s less than a year old.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
But South Australian Jarrad Morgan has made great strides already with his construction firm SA Construct and plans to complete $3.2 million revenue for the financial year.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
The projects are coming thick and fast for Morgan, with the CSIRO tasking him with building the Australian Square Kilometre Radio Pathfinder Observatory.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Other eye-catching work includes a house building project that is being filmed for TV show Grand Designs and a huge commercial cladding undertaking.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Morgan has tackled this rapid ascent by himself, handling all the ordering, project management, accounting and administration before handing tasks onto a team of tradesmen.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
He\u2019ll be getting a bit more of a hand after being recently accepted onto the SA Young Entrepreneur Scheme, but it\u2019s clear that Morgan\u2019s entrepreneurial career is going places.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFurthermore, as I meet people that doubt me, it gives me more encouragement to prove them wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
