Park, a senior finance professional with more than 20 years of experience and a current member of Electra’s finance team, will assume the responsibilities of CFO effective July 1, 2023. Cunningham will provide a smooth transition through his resignation date, June 30, 2023.

Park joined Electra in February 2023 and has worked closely with Cunningham through the company’s 2022 year-end and first-quarter 2023 reporting activities.
Mell commented: “Peter has hit the ground running since joining Electra and has already become an important member of the leadership team. We look forward to his many contributions ahead.”
