Currie Group has announced the appointment of two internal leaders to key service roles, reinforcing its operational structure following the recent departure of Director of Operations, Marcus Robinson.

Currie Group CEO Rob Mesaros confirmed the business will not appoint a direct replacement, instead implementing a refined leadership structure designed to sharpen focus across service operations.

“Maintaining strong service leadership and delivering a consistent customer experience remains critical to our business,” Mesaros said.

“Following Marcus’s departure, we have taken the opportunity to refine our structure and promote experienced internal leaders who understand our customers, our partners and our operational standards.”

Currie Group Customer Relationship Manager Allison Whitelaw has been promoted to the role of National Service Leader – Australia.

“Allison brings deep operational knowledge, proven leadership capability and the confidence of our teams and partners. Her commitment to customer outcomes, people development and operational discipline positions her well to lead the service function during this period,” Mesaros said.

Craig Thornton has been promoted to a newly created role of Service Operations Manager reporting to Whitelaw. Thornton will take on responsibility for managing spare parts, the remote support desk, and continue driving special projects across Australia.

“Craig’s experience and understanding of our service environment will be instrumental in maintaining reliability, responsiveness and continuity for both our teams and customers,” Mesaros said.

Mesaros said the appointments reflect the depth of capability within the organisation. “These changes demonstrate the strength of our internal bench and our ability to evolve without disruption,” he said.

“It is very much business as usual. Our focus remains on reliability, responsiveness and delivering high-quality outcomes for our customers and partners.”

Mesaros confirmed that a separate structure covering New Zealand operations, including spare parts, installations and inventory, will be announced shortly.
