We are pleased to have assisted Silverstripe in appointing its next CEO. Wayne Yarr will be joining Silverstripe on the 15th of March.

In conducting the search for their next CEO, Generator Talent sought someone to meet the needs of Silverstripe’s clients and team and build on the great platform established over the last 21 years, and to take the Silverstripe business to the next level.

We were delighted to have helped appoint Wayne Yarr to the role. He brings a track record of leading businesses in the digital technology and services market, both in New Zealand and internationally. He has held leadership roles companies that include Xerox, Virgin, Dimension Data, Avaya and NTT. As he said recently:
“I’ve worked closely with many senior leaders and Silverstripe clients. All have spoken highly of the company and its people, and of the positive impact it has made for governments, banks, and organisations in a range of sectors. As I’ve been telling people in my network about my move to Silverstripe, the positive reaction has been overwhelming.”
Congratulations to Wayne and Silverstripe on the appointment.
