Trinity founders resign
Queensland-based property and funds management group Trinity has announced key changes to its board with the resignation of both its founding chairman, Keith De Lacy, and company founder, Peter Lewis, following the recent departures of senior executives Laurie Brindle and Steve Leigh.
The company announced the departures of De Lacy and Lewis to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) with a statement from De Lacy expressing disappointment at the departures of Brindle and Leigh and Lewis accepting full responsibility for having appointed the two executives and negotiating their associated contracts.
“I feel my resignation is required for the company to move forward from this point,” Lewis said.
The company has said that its future focus will be almost exclusively on funds management under new chief executive Craig Bellamy and deputy chief executive David Asplin.
