Channel confirms timing of Board Chair succession

Monday 27th June 2022

Channel Infrastructure confirms that Board Chairman, Simon Allen, will step down with effect from 1 July 2022, and as previously announced, will be succeeded by James Miller.

Mr Allen said: “With our Corporate Governance Review now complete and changes to the business being implemented, it’s a natural time for new board leadership. I’m delighted that James Miller will take over from me as chairman of the board. With James’ extensive experience in capital markets, infrastructure, downstream energy sector and governance positions within leading NZX listed companies I have no doubt I am passing the baton to the right person.”

Mr Allen added: “As I step away, I want to take the opportunity to thank my colleagues on the Board for their support and the entire team, both past and present, at Marsden Point. It has been a period of great change for many, and yet, each time I visited site, I was always so impressed by the professionalism and dedication of the team.”

Mr Miller said: “I am honoured to be taking over from Simon and I want to thank him for his 8 years of service leading the company through a significant period of change for the business. With the company transition from a refinery operating model to an infrastructure company and Corporate Governance Review complete, we have an exciting time ahead of us as we now look to the future with confidence that our business is well-positioned to embrace the growth opportunities before us. I am looking forward to working alongside my colleagues on the Board, and the Channel Infrastructure leadership team to bring our company’s strategic plans to life.”
