Australian energy giant Santos announced July 20 that CFO Andrew Seaton will retire from the company by the end of 2016 following more than 11 years of service. He spent the last six years in his current role.
Santos Managing Director and CEO Kevin Gallagher paid tribute to Seaton as a key member of the executive team saying, “Andrew has worked diligently to deliver on the company’s strategy and I would like to recognise his strong contribution over many years. His knowledge and insights over the last few months have been invaluable for the transition of Santos to a new operating model, and I thank him for his integrity, enthusiasm and commitment during this time.
“I look forward to continuing to work closely with Andrew over coming months, and wish him well for the next phase of his career.”
Santos has commenced an executive search to identify a successor to Seaton.
