Sydney, Australia – In a significant move marking a new chapter in its leadership, LGI Limited, a forefront entity in waste management, has proudly announced the elevation of Jarryd Doran to the position of Chief Executive Officer (CEO), effective from Friday, 1st March 2024. This pivotal appointment comes as part of a deliberate succession strategy aimed at steering the company towards its future growth and innovation objectives.
Jarryd Doran, who previously held the role of Chief Operating Officer at LGI, is set to replace Dr. Jessica North. Dr. North, in her tenure as CEO since 2017, has significantly contributed to the company’s success and will now transition to serve as an Executive Director and Chief Sustainability Officer. This shift not only underscores LGI’s commitment to sustainable practices but also ensures continuity in leadership and strategic direction.
Doran’s journey with LGI commenced in April 2014, during which he has been instrumental in overseeing the company’s operations and spearheading projects that underscore LGI’s commitment to innovation and industry leadership in waste management. His extensive experience and deep understanding of the sector position him uniquely to drive LGI’s growth and sustain its mission towards a zero-carbon, clean energy future.
The leadership transition was carefully planned, reflecting a thorough evaluation process by LGI’s Board, which underscored Doran’s comprehensive blend of leadership qualities, strategic vision, and operational expertise as key to leading LGI into its next phase of expansion and development.
Adam Bloomer will continue his role as Managing Director, working in close collaboration with Doran and Dr. North to actualize LGI’s strategic goals and further solidify its position as a leader in waste management solutions across Australia and New Zealand.
Chairman Vik Bansal expressed enthusiasm over Doran’s appointment, acknowledging it as a milestone in LGI’s planned leadership evolution. He commended Dr. North for her invaluable contributions and expressed anticipation for her continued impact in her new role focusing on carbon strategy and sustainability initiatives.
LGI Limited, listed on the Australian Securities Exchange under the ticker ASX:LGI, remains dedicated to providing innovative waste management solutions, contributing to the sustainability of the industries it serves, and fostering a cleaner, more sustainable future.
