In his new role as CEO, John will be responsible for leading and managing the Australian media business, through the implementation of the next evolution of QMS’ multi-platform engagement strategy across digital, outdoor and sport media.
Nathan Sable, currently Managing Director of QMS’ production company Omnigraphics, will become CEO of QMS Production and assume oversight of all QMS’ Australian production and logistics businesses, including Omnigraphics, MMT and BMG. With vast knowledge and years of experience across the print production industry, Nathan will be responsible for driving operational efficiencies across the Group.
Reporting to the Group CEO Barclay Nettlefold, John and Nathan will assume immediate operational responsibility of each of the businesses and enable the Group CEO to dedicate a greater degree of focus on the strategic direction and future growth opportunities of the QMS Media Group as a whole.
Group CEO Barclay Nettlefold said: “I am really excited about the future direction of the QMS Media Group and the calibre of people that we have within the team.”
