Some might think there is some link between the announcement of the resignation of Managing Director and CEO, Neil Wiles and the recent appointment of Craig Poole as an Executive Director. The announcement at the end of October of Craig Poole as an executive director of the Company, effective 28 October 2019 said Mr Poole has over 30 years' experience as an advertising and marketing professional, working with, amongst others, Westpac and DuPont Australia. He was the founder of marketing agency, Synchromesh, and led its growth and expansion into Asia, before selling it on. Mr Poole holds a Bachelor of Commerce from Macquarie University and Postgraduate Diploma (Communications) from the University of Technology, Sydney, and worked in Chartered and Commercial Accounting before transitioning into marketing and advertising. He is currently the principal of Accelerate Creative Strategies, a strategic marketing, creative and media consultancy. In addition to his Board position, Mr Poole has been contracted for an initial period of 12 months to provide consulting services to the Company, specifically focused upon business positioning and growth, Maybe this is a step towards improving the IMS business, maybe a change in direction even.
