EROAD Appoints New Chief Executive Officer
21 June 2022
Transportation technology services company EROAD (NZX/ASX: ERD), with its purpose of safer and
more sustainable roads, is pleased to confirm the appointment of Mark Heine as EROAD’s new Chief
Executive Officer.
The Board began a global search process in late 2021 for a new Chief Executive Officer to allow Steven
Newman to step back from the day-to-day responsibility of leading the company. With Steven’s
resignation in early April the Board have had to reconsider the skillset a new Chief Executive Officer
needed to bring to EROAD.
Today the Board is extremely pleased to announce the appointment of Mark Heine as EROAD’s Chief
Executive Officer. Given Mark’s deep knowledge of the business, team building skills, and
understanding of the company's strategy he emerged as the stand-out candidate.
Chairman Graham Stuart said ‘As Acting Chief Executive Officer Mark has empowered the team and
won the respect of all. EROAD’s Board has been impressed by Mark’s leadership and commercial skills
and since his appointment as interim Chief Executive Officer in early April he has breathed fresh air
into EROAD. His in-depth knowledge of the business will be invaluable as we complete the integration
of Coretex.’
Mark Heine said “My three months as Acting Chief Executive Officer has reinforced my view that
EROAD is extremely well positioned with the merger of Coretex, providing an excellent platform for
future growth. I'm pleased to be leading EROAD at a pivotal point in its history.’
‘We have invested heavily in our capability and now is the time to deliver on this investment. We will
sharpen our focus to ensure delivery on our North American strategy while retaining focus on our
successful New Zealand business and the growth Australia provides in the medium term” says Mark.
Mr Heine will be paid a base salary commensurate with benchmarks for businesses of EROAD’s size
and sector, with additional short and long-term incentive payments based on the achievement of
targets agreed with the Board.
