STOCKLAND has appointed two new executives, Andrew Whitson and Stephen Bull, as part of CEO Mark Steinert's management shakeup.
Whitson will take on the role of group executive and CEO residential from July 1, taking over from interim Kingsley Andrew. He has 20 years of experience in Australia and abroad. He led the group’s Victorian residential business since 2009, which was expanded in 2012 to include New South Wales.
Steinert said Whitson bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the role, and had a strong track record of achievement during his time as a senior manager with the group.
Meanwhile Bull, currently Stockland’s general manager development and design (commercial property) will take over the role of group executive and CEO retirement living, vacated by David Pitman who is resigning.
Bull joined Stockland in 2007 and has led the development and design team since 2009, overseeing the retail development pipeline.
The changes are part of a significant management restructure and follows the appointment of Bank of America Merrill Lynch real estate managing director Simon Shakesheff to the newly created role of group executive strategy and stakeholder relations in May.
Last month Stockland sacked its CFO Tim Foster and CEO of residential property Mark Hunter.
