BJ Ball CEO steps down

Bull, who was the driving force behind the company’s takeover of CPI, will remain involved with the business and its strategic direction at a board and investment level.

BJ Ball national marketing manager Peter Friend-Ngui said Bull had put in an “enormous” amount of energy and time into establishing BJ Ball on both sides of the Tasman.

“The investors [Maui Capital] became involved to improve and renovate the business and build an opportunity,” he said.

“One of the postives of this change is that it gives Craig Brown the opportunity to stabilise the business at this early stage of the process.”

Ngui described Brown as a “dyed-in-the-wool paper merchant” with a huge amount of industry experience.

“This is purely one step in the process of creating a stable and dynamic team to take this business into the future.”

Brown, who has worked closely with Bull for a number of years, said he was “delighted” to step into the role.

“Firstly I would like to thank Andrew for his superb leadership in what is a fantastic opportunity for us at BJ Ball Group to be leading an industry change,” he said.

“It is business as usual and we will continue our strategic plan that we have set ourselves in developing our new group.”
