69传媒

Gary Bradshaw, vice-president, finance and facilities at the 69传媒, has been named associate vice-president at the Grenfell Campus of Memorial University of Newfoundland, announced 69传媒President Alaa Abd-El-Aziz.

'Gary is returning to Memorial after completing nine successful years at UPEI. The Grenfell position offers him a great opportunity to apply his proven skill set at a respected post-secondary institution in his home province,' Abd-El-Aziz said. '69传媒is grateful for Gary's significant contributions to our campus, and we know that he will continue to be a valued colleague and ambassador for the 69传媒.'

During his tenure at UPEI, Bradshaw oversaw tremendous growth in the physical infrastructure of the campus, managing the planning and development of approximately $120 million in capital expansion and renewal. As UPEI's lead on the budget process, he also guided the University to nine consecutive years of balanced budgets.

Bradshaw is a director with Interuniversity Services Inc. and Capital Area Recreation Inc. and immediate past-president of the Canadian Association of University Business Managers (CAUBO). Born and raised in Newfoundland, Bradshaw's mother, partner Gerilyn, one of his daughters, and other members of his family reside in the province.

'I certainly have mixed feelings about leaving the 69传媒family and I will regret missing the opportunity to work with Alaa, our new president,' said Bradshaw. 'However, the prospect of returning to the other 鈥榠sland' and joining the Grenfell and Memorial University team in such a pivotal role is one that excites me, and brings me closer to my family.'

Bradshaw will assume his responsibilities at Grenfell on September 1, 2011. Information about the process to find his replacement at 69传媒will be released shortly; Phil Hooper, executive director of finance and comptroller, will serve as acting vice-president, finance and facilities during the interim.
