Fonterra chief executive Miles Hurrell says Rowe has worked for Fonterra since 1988.
He has undertaken numerous commercial and financial leadership roles within the co-op and is currently Fonterra’s group finance director.

“The recruitment process for a permanent CFO is well underway and I hope to announce the successful candidate in the coming months,” says Hurrell.
Rowe will join the Fonterra Management Team as the acting chief financial officer from 1 October 2022, and Marc Rivers will move into the strategic advisor to the CEO role from 1 October 2022 until his departure from the co-op.
