Both his skillset and approach are a great fit with that of the existing Senior Management Team, so it was a natural decision to make this appointment.

The ability to flex and adapt to a fast-changing environment has never been more critical to a business’s success than in the current climate. Jason has been instrumental in the way Molson have successfully navigated our way through the challenging circumstances presented by the COVID-19 pandemic to date and his influence will continue to keep us one step ahead moving forward”.
