Changes to Executive team at Trade Me
Trade Me Group Limited (TME) has reorganised its management, including some
changes to its Executive team. Trade Me CEO Jon Macdonald said the new
structure reflected Trade Me''s strategic priorities, and would assist the
business in its continued growth.
The reorganisation had three main parts:
o To make engagement with customers and the public more cohesive by
appointing Trade Me''s inaugural Chief Customer Officer. This role will be
filled by Trent Mankelow (currently Trade Me''s Chief Product Officer, a role
he has held since October 2014).
o To better deliver on tech and product priorities with a new Chief
Product and Technology Officer position. This would bring together the key
elements of product development, data and technology platforms. The current
General Manager of Platform and Operations, David Wasley, will act as CPTO
until a permanent appointment is made, and will move on from the business
later in the year after more than 10 years at Trade Me.
o To reflect the continued growth in scale and importance of its
classifieds businesses, Alan Clark (Head of Trade Me Motors) and Jeremy Wade
(Head of Trade Me Jobs) join the Executive team. This follows on from Head of
Commercial Jimmy McGee''s decision to finish up in September, having had more
than 11 years in the business.
Mr Macdonald acknowledged the very substantial contribution that both Mr
Wasley and Mr McGee had made to Trade Me, and noted that with over a decade
apiece at Trade Me, each has played a huge and meaningful part in shaping a
New Zealand icon.
