Antarctica NZ chief executive resigns suddenly after boardroom discussions

Antarctica NZ chief executive Peter Beggs and high-powered board member Sharon Hunter have quit unexpectedly, after talks with the board.

 

Both cited family reasons. Hunter, a prominent IT entrepreneur, said she stepped down from the board "some weeks ago" to spend more time with her daughter.

 

Beggs resigned this Thursday, and claimed he had for some time been considering a return to the United Kingdom to be closer to his children's grandparents. 

 

 

SUPPLIED

 

Sharon Hunter said she quit the board a few weeks ago to support her 18-year-old daughter during the exam season.

 

But at odds with the claim his departure was planned, Beggs has scheduled commitments as chief executive in a month's time. The entity's website still identified him as chief executive last night, and Governance NZ is promoting a lunch with Beggs in Christchurch on September 20, with tickets still selling for $45.
