As 2024 ends, Fenner Conveyors has confirmed a number of structural changes across the company including several leadership changes.
The executive team has been strengthened with a number of new faces, bringing a tonne of passion and drive to the powerhouse of conveyor solutions within Fenner Conveyors Group.
After 10 years as managing director, and 27 years employment with the company, Graham Lenz has confirmed his decision to retire in December 2024, handing the reins to incoming managing director, Jen Green.
“Graham Lenz has been instrumental in the growth, diversification and success of Fenner Conveyors over his 27 years with the business,” said Green. “There are others in our industry, but we do it with heart.”
Green joined Fenner Conveyors in early 2022 as a company director, initially leading People, Culture, Health, Safety and Wellbeing, along with Fenner’s Enterprise Registered Training Organisation, before taking on commercial and operational responsibility based out of Western Australia.

Two long-standing leaders within Fenner Conveyors, Brett McMillan and Brent Foley, have been appointed as chief operating officer and chief financial officer respectively, joining Green on the board of directors.
Lauren Stimpson has been appointed to lead the People & Culture function as general manager.
Finally, Warren Sexton, who is embedded in Fenner Conveyors’ Western Australian operation has been promoted to executive general manager manufacturing.
This role will see Sexton drive excellence in the manufacturing division, bringing with him a depth of experience in building and maturing manufacturing plants through his time as general manager of CPS.
“We’ve grown significantly in recent years, so establishing these structural changes will create the head room and oxygen to grow further and continue to challenge our people,” Green said.
Through a continued investment in its people, Fenner Conveyors is building capability and expertise from within.
