New Managing Director appointed to Fujitsu New Zealand

Fujitsu announces it has appointed Stuart Stitt to the role of Managing Director of Fujitsu New Zealand effective immediately. Stitt will be returning to New Zealand after three years as Chief Financial Officer of Fujitsu Australia and New Zealand.

Over his 25 year career Stitt has gained extensive experience in senior roles in Australia, United Kingdom and New Zealand. As well as having first-hand experience in the New Zealand leadership role, he has a deep understanding of the local market and has many personal relationships across New Zealand enterprises and government.

He will focus on continuing the growth of the Fujitsu New Zealand business, which is based on strong customer relationships, providing IT expertise and service delivery excellence.

Stitt originally joined Fujitsu as Managing Director New Zealand in September 2007 following the company’s acquisition of Infinity Solutions. He has held senior positions and directorships in several New Zealand companies including joint shareholder, Managing Director and Chief Financial Officer of Trilogy Computer Systems, which was subsequently bought by Infinity.

Mike Foster, Chief Executive Officer of Fujitsu Australia and New Zealand, said: “I am confident our New Zealand business is in good hands with Stuart at the helm and that the Fujitsu New Zealand management team is well equipped to continue the high standards of service and innovation our customers expect from Fujitsu.”
