There’s a new leader at Emerald Carrying Co and Monaro Fuel Haulage, with the company hiring internally for its next CEO.
Arron Johnson revealed over the weekend he is the brand’s new group CEO.
“After three and a half years as the group general manager, Greg Haylock and the Haylock family have given me the opportunity to step into the role of group CEO,” Johnson says in a social media post.
“I’ll be honest—titles have never been what drives me. What does matter to me is the outstanding people I work with, the trust we build, and the results we deliver together.
