Jemena Managing Director to Step Down

On Monday 21 August, leading energy infrastructure company Jemena** announced the decision of Frank Tudor to step down from his roles of Managing Director of SGSP (Australia) Assets Pty Ltd (SGSPAA) and Chairman of Zinfra after five years of dedicated leadership of the company for family reasons.

Frank came to Jemena with over 30 years’ extensive experience in the international oil, gas, and power industries having held various senior executive roles across the sector throughout his career.

Chairman of Jemena, Mr Jiang Longhua, said: “I would like to express our gratitude and appreciation for Frank’s leadership and dedication during his tenure as Jemena’s Managing Director and I want to take a moment to acknowledge the significant impact Frank has made on our company.”

“Frank has been pivotal in ensuring the organisation has managed a period of unprecedented volatility in the energy market.”

Jemena’s Independent Non-Executive Director the Hon. Warwick Smith AO, said: “Under Frank’s guidance, Jemena has achieved sustained growth, with Frank’s leadership and ability to navigate challenges proving instrumental in steering the company.”

Over the last five years the Group has worked to connect Australia’s first LNG import terminal, at Port Kembla, to the east coast gas network.

The Group has also continued to highlight the role renewable gases such as biomethane and hydrogen - as well as gas networks - could play as part of Australia’s energy future.

From the end of August, Frank will step down and transition to an advisory role to the Board until the end of 2023.

The Board has appointed Jemena’s Chief Financial Officer, David Gillespie, as Acting Managing Director from 1 September 2023. David has had an eighteen-year career at Jemena and has held a range of roles across finance, strategy, and risk. “On behalf of Jemena’s Shareholders and the Board, we wish Frank continued success as he transitions to new opportunities,” said Mr Jiang.
