SYDNEY FISH MARKET ANNOUNCES DEPARTURE OF CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER


16 September 2024

 

Sydney Fish Market today announced the resignation of Greg Dyer as Chief Executive Officer, effective 16th September 2024.

During his five-year tenure at the helm, Mr Dyer has been responsible for driving significant transformation at Sydney Fish Market, including preparing the Market to relocate to a world-class facility that is destined to be Sydney's most significant harbourside building since the Opera House.

“I joined Sydney Fish Market at a pivotal moment in its history and in five years, much has been achieved. It’s now time for me to step back to focus on the next chapter of my career, which includes non-executive roles but also spending more time with my beautiful family. I look forward to celebrating the opening of the new Sydney Fish Market in 2025, and cheering on from the sidelines,” Mr Dyer said. 

Sydney Fish Market’s Chair, Craig Davison said, “Greg has contributed significantly to Sydney Fish Market and has been an invaluable strength in guiding the organisation through what is set to be one of the most iconic periods in its history. The organisation is grateful for his contributions and wishes him the best in his future endeavours.”

The search to secure a new Chief Executive Officer has commenced. In the interim Stephen Groom, Chief Financial Officer, will assume the day-to-day responsibilities for the Market’s operations and Michael Guilday, General Counsel and Head of Property, will assume responsibility for the transition to the new Sydney Fish Market. 

Sydney Fish Market is committed to a seamless leadership transition and maintaining its focus on the move to the world class new Sydney Fish Market on Blackwattle Bay in 2025. 

Sydney Fish Market is the lifeblood of the seafood industry in Australia and the largest fish market in the southern hemisphere. Sydney Fish Market Pty. Ltd. is owned equally by the harvest and post-harvest sectors of the NSW seafood industry – The Catchers Trust of NSW and the Sydney Fish Market Tenants and Merchants.
