look forward to working with the Board and our exceptional Leadership Team to build on the important work that Anthony has already started,” Doug said.
“There is significant work to do, but with a focus on improving customer experience and creating a deeper level of engagement with our people, I am confident that we can become an even better business,” he added.
The company is currently looking for a new Chief Financial Officer and Secretary roles.
