He has held other senior finance, strategy, and treasury positions within Qantas Engineering, as well as at Spotless Group and Lend Lease Corporation. SRG current CFO, Gary Carroll, will take up the role of GM group development at the company, with responsibility for overseeing the development of the group’s multi-

Peter Birtles, CEO and MD of SRG, said he was pleased to welcome Burns to the company.
“We have taken our time to ensure that we find the right candidate who will not only contribute to the continued development of the group and effectively lead the finance function, but who will also match the group’s culture and share its values.”
