Yeastie Boys founder Stu McKinlay has announced that he will be stepping away from the business.
McKinlay, who has been based in England for a few years, will remain a major shareholder and non-executive director.
“I’m leaving the day-to-day running of Yeastie Boys, soon,” McKinlay posted on social media.
“I’ll be sticking around as a significant shareholder and non-executive director … I’ll reflect on the last decade when the time is right but for those of you who worked with me in my past life as a business, systems, and data analyst… I’ll be looking for some work in that space.
“Give me a shout if you have any opportunities either in the UK (or via remote work if you’re in New Zealand).
“Most people won’t believe it but I’ve always missed what I did and I’m looking forward to getting stuck into it again.”
The Wellington-based brewery was founded by friends McKinlay and Sam Possenniskie in 2008. The beers are now commercially produced in New Zealand, Australia and United Kingdom.
