The Bridge Networks Pty Ltd re-positioning following the resignation of Group MD.

 

The Bridge Networks Pty Limited in Australia has reached an agreement to transfer the product supply and warranty support areas of its business to Broadcast ONE, a company owned by Darren Kirsop-Frearson. The Bridge Networks Pty Limited will now re-position in the Australian market as a systems-integration company providing solutions to strategic customers in the broadcast, communications and defence arenas.  This change will not impact the NZ business led by Christine Fisher.

The agreement reached means that Darren Kirsop-Frearson has resigned from his position as Group Managing Director for The Bridge Networks. This move sees Darren specifically step down from the Companies' Boards of Directors, which encompass The Bridge Networks Limited, based in Wellington, The Bridge Networks North in the UK, and as the Managing Director for The Bridge Networks Pty Ltd in Australia.

Following Darren’s departure, The Bridge Networks Pty Ltd, based in Sydney will continue to be headed up by the remaining Company Directors Greg Reid (Engineering Director) and Patrick Crowe (Commercial Director).

Managing Director of The Bridge Networks Limited, Christine Fisher says “The NZ team wishes Darren the very best in his new venture and thank him very much for his huge contribution to our Group of Businesses. It is expected that a replacement Director will be appointed shortly to join Patrick and myself as Company Directors of the New Zealand Company. No further changes will be necessary in order for us to continue focusing our business on its key strategic objectives. ”
