Domain’s GM of Victorian operations Trent Casson departs in restructure as company makes a ‘small number’ of redundancies

Domain’s national magazine publisher and general manager of Victorian operations Trent Casson will leave the company in the coming weeks as it looks for operational and business efficiencies in the wake of its separation from Fairfax.

Domain says Casson’s departure is part of its operational review

Nick Falloon, executive chairman of Domain, told staff in an internal email a “small number” of other people would also lose their jobs, but insisted the “operational review is entirely distinct from the ongoing workplace review”, which commenced after allegations former CEO Antony Catalano presided over a problematic and sexist workplace culture. 

Casson joined Domain as part of the Metro Media Publishing acquisition as general manager of sales and editorial. In 2013, when Catalano ascended to the Domain throne as CEO, Casson became chief operating officer. In 2015, he became managing director of Domain Victoria.
