Lamond was born in Cloncurry, Queensland, and served in the Royal Australian Air Force for three years. He was a real estate agent before and after his time in parliament, and also served as president of the Wynnum Chamber of Commerce, as a mediator with the Retail Shop Leases Tribunal, and as dispute arbitrator with the Real Estate Institute of Queensland. He was appointed Chairman of the Queensland Small Business Corporation by Joh Bjelke-Petersen after leaving parliament, and chaired the National Party's small business policy committee from 1979.{{Citation
