We're thrilled to announce today that we will have a new CEO: Craig Scroggie. Our founder and current CEO, Bevan Slattery will continue to be actively involved in the development of NEXTDC, serving as Executive Director and Deputy Chairman focussing his energy on the data centre delivery aspect of the business and the next generation of our proprietary ONEDC platform.

Mr Scroggie has been a non-executive Director of NEXTDC since November 2010 and is the outgoing Vice President and Managing Director of Symantec for the Pacific region. He has previously held senior leadership positions with Veritas Software, Computer Associates, EMC Corporation and Fujitsu Australia & New Zealand.

He is renowned for his exceptional skills and expertise in sales and marketing, strategy, business development and senior leadership in high-growth international ICT companies.

Our Chairman, Roger Clarke, said that the attraction of Mr Scroggie as the new CEO, on the eve of the launch of M1 and C1, was a significant coup for the Company, representing a further step towards the Company’s vision of becoming the Australia and New Zealand region’s most recognised, connected and trusted data centre brand.

Bevan Slattery said he was thrilled Mr Scroggie had accepted the role of CEO, “Craig’s incredible enthusiasm, experience and extensive contacts throughout Australia and Asia will be of great benefit to our existing sales and development plans and ignite NEXTDC’s next phase of growth."
