ACCORDANT GROUP LIMITED (NZX: AGL) ANNOUNCES CEO RETIREMENT
Accordant Group Limited (AGL) advises that Jason Cherrington has notified the Board of his intention
to retire from his CEO role towards the end of the FY27 financial year enabling a focus on his non-
executive director portfolio.
Accordant Chair Simon Bennett said the Board was grateful for Jason's leadership and significant
contribution to the Group during a period of unprecedented change. “On behalf of the Board, our
people and shareholders, I thank Jason for his commitment, leadership and stewardship of the Group
over the last 5 years. We have commenced a search for Jason’s replacement and are confident we
have the time to ensure an orderly transition.”
Since joining in 2021, Jason has successfully led the Group through the challenges of the COVID-19
pandemic, a prolonged economic downturn and significant changes across New Zealand’s labour
market. Under his leadership, the Group progressed its diversification strategy, completed the
integration of Hobson Leavy, strengthened operational efficiency and completed a successful capital
raise. This has positioned Accordant well for the future as the business returns to growth.
Accordant remains focused on executing its strategy, capitalising on improving market conditions and
delivering long-term value for shareholders. We look forward to updating you on progress made when
our half year report is released on 28th October.
