Steve has seen the business through a period of significant growth and has helped shape our strategic direction and ensured that the financial stewardship of the business over the last 10 years has supported the group's long-term growth.

"I am delighted that Kelly will join the Group in 2024 and I look forward to working with her over the years ahead. She has an excellent track record as a CFO working in a decentralised business, is highly experienced in the construction and property industry and her valuable and significant skills and insight will support me and the board as the group continues to develop and grow."
