Rubik names new chief exec
Rubik has named former Boston Consulting managing director Niek Hoogenhout as group chief executive to replace Brent Jackson who stood down from the role in February of last year.
Hoogenhout most recently worked with Boston Consulting and prior to that was Accenture managing director for the Asia Pacific region. He takes on the Rubik role from today. Rubik stated in an Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) announcement that he would receive a base salary of $400,000 plus statutory superannuation and options in the company.
Rubik board chair Craig Coleman said the appointment of Hoogenhout was part of the group’s development in which it would broaden its offerings, with Hoogenhout stating the group had already identified a number of growth areas in which to move.
Coleman also announced the retirement of Ian Hunter as non-executive director after more than 13 years on the board. Hunter will remain as a non-executive director of a Rubik subsidiary and act as consultant to the board when required.
