FASEA COO Colin Christie has left the organisation. Exactly when the move happened is not clear however he was removed from the organisation's website this week and Christie has updated his LinkedIn profile.

The news comes after the departure earlier this month of one of the founding directors of the FASEA board, Catriona Lowe.

FASEA responded with the following statement regarding the Chief Operating Officer:

"FASEA confirms the role of COO has been vacant for a period of weeks since November 2019. A subsequent search and interview process for a suitably qualified candidate has subsequently been undertaken.

"FASEA expects to be in a position to announce a new appointment soon."

Christie was previously the CFO for Pie Face while that organisation was going through an administrative turn around, and CFO for the medical device company Simavita while they were going through IPO for the American and Canadian stock exchanges.
