Former CEO Austin Singleton has been appointed executive chairman of the board, formalising his current role in driving the company’s strategic direction, stakeholder engagement, and shareholder value creation.

Former COO Anthony Aisquith has been named the firm’s new chief executive officer, reflecting his ongoing leadership of executing on the company’s strategy, business operations and performance.

CFO Jack Ezzell assumed new responsibilities as chief operating officer while retaining his role as chief financial officer, formalising his existing oversight of both the company’s financial and operational functions.

Former board chair John Schraudenbach will transition to the role of lead independent director, where he will continue to serve as a liaison between the non-independent and the independent members of the board, and will continue to be responsible for independent oversight of its function.

“These titles align with how we have been operating and executing on our key priorities, reinforcing our confidence in delivering long-term shareholder value,” said Singleton. “With these changes, we do not anticipate any significant impact on our day-to-day focus, roles, or responsibilities.”
