Sky farewells Chief Financial Officer and appoints Interim CFO

Sky New Zealand advises that Ciara McGuigan has resigned from her role as Chief Financial Officer. Given the time of year with Half Year Results due to be reported on 21st February, we have agreed that Ciara will step out of her role immediately and support the transition to Andrew Hirst who joins Sky from 5 February 2025 as Interim CFO.

Sky Chief Executive Sophie Moloney said: “I want to thank Ciara for her many and varied contributions during her time with us. These include her emphasis on commercial outcomes across key strategic deals, improving Sky’s annual planning processes and enhancing financial reporting to support insights that drove Management action. In addition, Ciara strengthened the Finance leadership team, demonstrating the value a high performing and diverse Finance team can deliver. We wish Ciara well with her future plans.”

“We are pleased to be welcoming Deloitte partner Andrew Hirst back to Sky as Interim CFO. It is excellent to have someone with Andrew’s experience, expertise and longstanding relationship with Sky to support me, the Executive team and the Finance Leadership Team.”
