On Friday, November 22, 2024, the CEO of Showmax and the South African arm of MultiChoice announced his resignation effective March 2025. A new appointment will take charge from April 1, 2025.
The outgoing CEO has been with the company for over a decade and has made significant contributions during his tenure, expanding broadcasting rights and maintaining key partnerships.
During his leadership, the company focused on producing local content, which has helped the service grow and attract investments.
Despite facing increased competition, the streaming service has shown growth in subscriber numbers and engagement, prompting further investments from the parent company.
The departing CEO will be leaving to explore opportunities in the sports business sector, with a structured handover process already in place for his successor.
