Fonterra's record forecast organic milk price
Fonterra has announced a record forecast opening organic milk price of $12.30/kgMS for the new season.
Commercial Director for Fonterra’s Global Markets business, Andrew Murray steps into the CFO role on August 1.
Fonterra chief executive Miles Hurrell says Murray is a highly experienced senior finance leader with strong expertise in driving profitable growth and delivery of large-scale business transformation.
“Andrew has been a real asset to the Global Markets team, with an enterprise leadership mindset, and I welcome his appointment to the Fonterra Management Team,” says Hurrell.
Prior to joining Fonterra, Andrew was CFO at Simplot Australia and he spent more than 10 years at Mondelez in a variety of senior finance roles.
In October last year, Neil Beaumont stepped down, just nine months after taking on the role.
Beaumont’s surprise departure came in a Fonterra press release to the NZ Stock Exchange. No reason was given for his sudden departure.
The co-op appointed Simon Till as acting CFO while the recruitment for a permanent appointment was underway.
Hurrell extended his thanks to Till for acting in the position. From August 1 Till moves into a strategic advisor role with the co-op.
