XLMedia CEO Stuart Simms Resigns

XLMedia has announced that Stuart Simms, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, has notified the Board of his intention to resign to pursue other interests. He will remain with the business for the next few months to support the Executive Team and Board, and to facilitate an orderly handover.

The board is now seeking Simms’ replacement, targeting someone who can “build upon the transformation of XLMedia” in recent years.

“I would like to thank Stuart for his contribution to XLMedia through a very challenging period in our history. He departs having expanded our Sports footprint in North America, a key strategic focus. I, on behalf of the Board, wish him all the very best for the future,” Julie Markey, Interim-Chair at XLMedia, said.

“During my time at XLMedia, and with the support of my team, we have been able to deliver substantive, tangible change; de-risking the core business whilst moving the Company’s operational focus towards the growing North American Sports market – creating a strong asset base capable of delivering shareholder value for many years to come,” Stuart Simms said.
