February 22nd 2023 – Hansen Technologies (ASX:HSN), a leading global provider of software and services to the energy, water and communications industries, is delighted to announce that effective 22nd February 2023, Hansen’s current Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Graeme Taylor has been promoted to the role of Chief Development Officer, relocating to London, UK. Replacing Graeme as Hansen’s CFO is Richard English, the company’s current Global Finance Director.
In this new capacity, Graeme’s primary focus will be to oversee group M&A and other strategic initiatives. With significant levels of M&A opportunities in EMEA and the Americas, Graeme’s promotion helps ensure Hansen is well-placed to deliver on its acquisition strategy. As Chief Development Officer, Graeme remains a key member of the Hansen executive team.
As a key contributor and leader over the past four years with Hansen, Richard now steps into the role of CFO. Richard has successfully taken on increasing responsibility in managing the global finance function and has made valuable contributions as a crucial member of the executive team. In a finance career spanning 25 years, Richard has worked in both private equity and publicly listed ownership environments, dealing with both multinational and local requirements. He has worked in Singapore, London, New York and Melbourne in a variety of executive roles.
Commenting on both appointments, Hansen Global CEO and Managing Director Andrew Hansen said, “We are delighted to announce the appointment of both Richard and Graeme to new executive roles within Hansen. Richard’s commercial and international experience, combined with his in-depth knowledge of the Hansen business, will be a major asset in continuing to drive the Hansen business forward. After a well-planned and thorough transition, I look forward to working closely with Richard as we execute on our next growth stage.
“The appointment of Graeme to oversee group M&A and international expansion, demonstrates the focus we have on strategic M&A activity. Graeme has made significant contributions to Hansen and I look forward to working with him in this new capacity in the coming years. On behalf of the Board, I’d like to congratulate both Richard and Graeme on these significant appointments.”
