Cricket Fiji is delighted to announce the appointment of new General Manager Jon Symonds.

Symonds takes over from Martin Shaw who departed Fiji in early November.

He will commence his new role on January 7 after he arrives in Fiji from the United Kingdom where he was previously based.

Symonds comes to Cricket Fiji with a wealth of experience, largely in the financial and renewable energy sector in the United Kingdom.

But it was his love of cricket, stemming from his birthplace of South Africa, which encouraged him to apply for the Cricket Fiji position.

He was originally due to commence the position in December, but inclement winter weather in England delayed the family's move.
