GrowthOps restructures board as majority of directors, including chair Dominique Fisher and CEO Paul Mansfield, resign
Trimantium GrowthOps, or TGO, has announced the departure of the majority of its directors – chair Dominique Fisher, director Melissa Field, and director and CEO Paul Mansfield – effective immediately, to be replaced by a completely new lineup as part of a restructure the trio allegedly recommended on their departure.
The new board will see Scott Tanner take the role as chair, Clint Cooper become managing director and CEO, Philip Dalidakis, Craig McMenamin and Jessica Hart become non-executive directors and Craig Davies executive director – technology and cybersecurity. They join founder and executive director Phillip Kingston, who will transition to a non-executive director role.
The departures include Paul Mansfield (centre) Dominique Fisher (far right)
GrowthOps is the parent company of Pureprofile? Have you told the ASX this?
Hi Cynical observer,
Thank you for your comment. In all the excitement, I did indeed make a mistake, this has been rectified.
Thanks,

It’s TGO. So what are the chances of the new directors being connected to the old directors?
let’s see a wave of redundancies coming about soon!
What this company needed was a swimsuit model to be appointed a non executive director. That’ll fix it.
For all the changes, they still have an impressive client list
Lend Lease
Officeworks
Holden
Bupa
Tencent
According to http://cansultant.growthops.co.....growthops/
Yea-Lendlease is about gone, lost to Atomic of all agencies. Another smoke on mirrors debacle.
I’ve read more truthful statements in the Herald Sun.
clearly obvious that the retainer they had with GrowthOps has been diminishing…just one of many legacy APD clients that have been going

So Phillip Kingston is now a non-executive (ie independent) director? I see….
Surely there’s got to be not enough money to keep this organisation float…is there anyone having a look at the books to see how long this would last??
I bet the mums and dads who invested at $1 must be thrilled with the new board being so effusive in their gratitude for the amazing work done by Dom Fisher and Phillip Kingston to get TGO to where it is today.

Could be the secured lender is pulling the strings by planting a friendly, hold on to your hats!
Phillip Kingston and Dominique Fisher for PM and Deputy PM. TGO’s new directors couldn’t speak more highly of them. Now if we could only get Kingston and Fisher to do for Australia what they did for TGO!
Roll ups never work in marketing communications in Australia:
– Issues and Images
– Photon (Enero)
– And now this!
I’d forgotten about Issues & Images – thanks!
There was also Blue Freeway.
Can anyone help with an answer?
As a wise old hand once said, ‘best to treat your first payout as your only payout!’
If I was these guys, I’d spending less time writing Press Releases and more time finding growth opportunities for my business, my people and my clients.
Frankly, other then AJF, I haven’t heard of any of these companies or people. It’s all quite strange and not going that well apparently.
Wonder if they’ll go through a rebrand to get rid of the negativity that is GrowthOps haha
It’s a shame. At its core, there was something of a strategic insight behind the failed execution.
company running out of money- but lets increase board fees?.
yep that will help the company! well done Phillip.
wonder how the moral is on the ground…surely people would be feeling a little bit worried about job security
I can verify, it is a rocky culture.
As Victorian Minister for Small Business Dalidakis appointed Kingston and Fisher to LauchVic Advisory Board.
Fisher is a Board member of Australia Post.
Dalidakis joins Australia Post in July 2019.
Fisher resigns from TGO Board in October 2019.
Dalidakis joins TGO Board in October 2019.
Kingston resigns from TGO Board and assumes non-executive director role.

2018…
A new cyber security partner called TriSecOps has officially launched operations across Australia and Asia Pacific under the leadership of CEO Craig Davies.
Founded in 2018 by Davies and Phillip Kingston, the company will receive backing and investment from Trimantium Capital.
Davies will also act as an executive director on the TriSecOps board and will be joined by CFO and executive director Craig McMenamin and non-executive director Philip Dalidakis.
They can’t execute marketing campaigns-but they are going into the dark world of cyber security. That’ll surely be a grand success. Off to cash my check from a Nigerian prince I met via email this morning, cheerio.
The trend of investor-backed shipwreck agencies needs to end. As marketers some of us actually care about our work and its embarrassing to be employed by these greedy business hacks who jump from one investment high to the next, leaving a wake of pissed off clients, redundancies and offshore teams being laid off via email. (Sadly, I have now worked for two companies that have done this). And all of this is for a select few people, hiding behind an investment firm, to make a quick buck. On the same note, clients should really do their research. Think of it as buying ethical clothing, think about who is on the other end, pumping out your content and designs.
I sniff redundancies and a sale coming…
I’m sure Scott Tanner must be thrilled to see his name mentioned in the same breath as Phillip Kingston in Margin Call’s ‘Sargon Saga’ story in today’s Australian.
Down to 15c.
A new low.
Market cap now just $21m.
And to think a week ago Scott Tanner had to thank Dominique Fisher and Paul Mansfield for their …..wait for it…….valuable contributions to shareholders and employees!
Heaven knows what he would’ve said if the share price had increased.
Either someone has to buy it [good luck with that one], make a play to buy out AJF, or ….. maybe invite Dominique Fisher and Phillip Kingston back to make some more of their very special and valuable contributions to shareholders and employees.
Scott, get out whilst you can and take AJF with you.
The rest is beneath you.
Back to 17c
gone up to 19 cents now!
And so it happens…almost 40 redundancies just happened today!
