One of our core guiding principles is to provide opportunities for colleagues to grow and flourish, so I am delighted to see Lee and Rachele embody that spirit.

General Manager David Brown said: “It’s been a pleasure to see how Lee and Rachele have grown into their roles and I am proud that we have had the opportunity to reward their efforts with promotions.
