Alex Parsons to take on CEO role at Car Advice

Alex Parsons’ stint with Nine is set to continue, as he fills the void left by Andrew Beecher as Car Advice CEO.

Parsons had been with Nine for more than a decade, but departed in 2017 when he was chief digital officer following a restructure. After a brief stint as CEO of Adcorp, Parsons returned to the Nine family to manage the sale of the events business it had inherited when it took over Fairfax.

Parsons will commence his new role next week

The former Fairfax events portfolio – which includes the likes of the City2Surf – has now been sold off to the Ironman Group for $31m, freeing up Parsons for his new role.
