TasFoods has announced the resignation of its CFO Donna Wilson. Wilson was with the company for five years and will stay on until her replacement is found. 

Wilson said her experience with the company has been rewarding. “The senior management team has worked very hard throughout the last five years to grow the company and I’m proud of what we have achieved over that time. I look forward to working with Jane and the team for a smooth transition,” said Wilson. 

TasFoods managing director and CEO Jane Bennett said Wilson has been an integral part of the TasFood leadership team. She expressed her gratitude for Wilson’s contribution at the company and for her role in establishing the financial and compliance framework of the Group and completion of five acquisitions.

“Donna has played a key-role in enhancing the company systems and financial capability to enable future growth and completed the recent equity raisings and restructuring debt facilities to provide flexibility and tenure. 

“On behalf of the board and everyone else at TasFoods, I thank Donna for her commitment and wish her every success for the future,” said Bennett.
