Elders restructures management
Elders has restructured its separate corporate and operational management into a single integrated management team.
Some senior management roles will be made redundant while others have gained broader responsibilities.
The new structure will incorporate changes from the forthcoming sale of Elders’ insurance operations to QBE.
The restructure has created the role of chief operating officer, which will be filled by Mike Guerin, currently the managing director of Elders Rural Services, and chief information officer, which will be filled by Shaun Hughes. Hughes is the chief financial officer for Elders Rural Services.
Accounting and finance will be streamlined, with a new head of balance sheet management and head of performance and planning.
