The Woolworths Group has announced the leadership team for Endeavour Group in the lead-up to the proposed demerger of the group. Steve Donohue has been appointed CEO and Colin Storrie COO and CFO.

Donohue was buying and merchandising director for Woolworths Supermarkets before his current role as MD of Endeavour Drinks.

Storrie is currently MD, Group Portfolio Businesses and was Group deputy CFO before that. He has also served on the board of ALH Group and Quantium Group.

Woolworths Group chair Gordon Cairns said both were highly experienced with key leadership roles in foods, drinks and hospitality. 

“With their in-depth knowledge of the industry and deep understanding of the business, they’re ideally placed to oversee the next phase of growth for Endeavour Group, while also sustaining and building on our existing partnership,” Cairns said.

The announcement follows that in December, when Peter Hearl was named proposed chair-elect.

In a statement Woolworths said all roles were subject to the relevant regulatory approvals and the company's board approving the demerger.
