Tenix Group Chairman, Paul Salteri today announced Mr Taylor's appointment, made following an international search. According to Mr Salteri, "Ross Taylor's skills and experience make him the ideal person to lead Tenix into its next stage of development."
Tenix has just come through a year of change and re-focus following the sales of its defence-related businesses. The decision to exit defence activities was made in 2007 following a strategic review that identified that future growth opportunities for the defence businesses would be maximised when combined with the operations, scale and market strengths of leading companies with a global focus.
"The focus of the Tenix Group is now very much on providing services to infrastructure owners and we were looking for a new leader with broadly based skills and experience built on a strong engineering background", said Mr Salteri.
A civil engineer with a first class Honours degree, Mr Taylor first joined Lend Lease as a site manager in 1985. In his 23 years with the company Mr Taylor took on many roles including heading their Asia Pacific, Global Construction and Global Retail & Communities divisions. His career with Lend Lease culminated with his appointment as Chief Operating Officer in 2007.
"Tenix is looking forward to welcoming Mr Taylor when he takes up his new position on 20 April 2009", said Mr Salteri.
Current Tenix Managing Director and CEO, Greg Hayes announced his resignation last November after key divestment transactions were completed. Mr Salteri has expressed his gratitude to Greg for the pivotal role he played in leading the company through the transformation.
