Steve Sheridan, who has served as CFO for the last 10 years, will begin his new role in January.

He replaces outgoing CEO Boley Smillie, who is becoming the new chief executive and head of the public service at the States.

During his tenure as CFO, Mr Sheridan has played a significant role in delivering on Guernsey Post’s financial strategy, and has contributed to several successful strategic projects, including the acquisition of freight and logistics business HR Air, and leading on the procurement and installation of the company’s parcel sorting machine.

‘I am extremely proud to have been appointed as CEO of Guernsey Post and look forward to the responsibility of leading the organisation through its next phase, focusing on delivering our strategy to achieve long-term success, while continuing to provide excellent service to our customers and wider community,’ he said.

Guernsey Post chairman Rick Denton said he was delighted to announce Mr Sheridan’s appointment.

‘Steve is an experienced chief financial officer with a strong track record of delivering complex change projects. He brings the necessary skills and leadership style to lead Guernsey Post in the next phase of its development.’
