Briscoe Group has announced the appointment of Mark Cairns as an independent non-executive director, effective from November 1, 2025.

Cairns' appointment comes after Andy Coupe's decision to retire from the board at next year's annual shareholders meeting.

Cairns brings experience in logistics, infrastructure, complex supply chains, and capital markets, having previously served as chief executive of Port of Tauranga, Toll Owens, and Owens Cargo Company.

He is currently the chair of Freightways and a director of Auckland International Airport.

Cairns will retire as a director of Briscoe Group at the 2026 annual meeting but intends to seek re-election by shareholders.
