I greatly appreciate the support he has given me in streamlining and transforming the business.”
Aucutt will stay with flexigroup until early October, in an advisory capacity to support an orderly transition with Murray.
Murray enunciated, “I’ve been closely watching the transformation of flexigroup into one of the largest instalment payment companies trans-Tasman and am thrilled to now be a part of that journey. I have long harboured a desire to help lead an established fintech, having advised and followed a number of successful startups in my career. I look forward to supporting Rebecca in the continued transformation of the business, as we drive user growth, increase brand visibility and build on our market leading offering.”
Priorly, Murray was Customer Executive of nab Private, leading the strategic and digital transformation of the bank into one of the highest performing divisions.
