The Australian-based contracting firm Leighton Holdings Limited has appointed Peter Gregg as deputy chief executive officer.

Gregg will continue to hold his roles as the chief financial officer and an executive director of the company.

“Peter plays an integral role as chief financial officer in our business transformation program,” says Leighton Holding’s CEO Hamish Tyrwhitt.

“In appointing Peter as deputy CEO I aim to ensure that the pace of progress accelerates as we rebase the business for sustainable growth in 2014 and beyond.”

Tyrwhitt says Gregg will focus on rebasing the operations of the Australian-based contracting subsidiaries and will drive the creation of 'centres of excellence' for the business.

“This restructure creates an appropriate focus on reshaping the Australian business and on driving the growth of our offshore markets through our Leighton Asia, India and offshore business in where we are valued and can extract value,” says Tyrwhitt.
