Commenting on the appointment, Fletcher Building acting Chair Barbara Chapman said: “Following an extensive global search I am pleased to confirm Andrew Reding as Group CEO & MD of Fletcher Building, and a Director of Fletcher Building Industries Limited. ‘’The Board is pleased to have secured a Group CEO & MD of Andrew’s calibre, experience and respect in the market.

He is an industry veteran who brings a unique combination of skills and experience, and a performance and values mindset.” During his time at Fletcher Building, he held the roles of Chief Executive of Building Products and Steel from 2001 to 2006 and Managing Director of Fletcher Wood Panels from 1997 to 2001. Subsequent to this, his management career includes senior executive roles with Rank Group Ltd, where he was President and CEO of Evergreen Packaging Inc, a global business with US$1.7 billion revenue and CEO of Carter Holt Harvey Pulp, Paper & Packaging with more than NZ$2.3 billion revenue.

My immediate priorities will be to understand and then optimise the operational performance across the businesses for the prevailing challenging market conditions, see that we are well positioned when those market conditions improve, and work towards closing out the well-known issues the company faces.

My job will be to translate our shared vision into strong results.
