Fyfe brings more than 20 years’ experience in energy and infrastructure, most recently leading Synergy’s transition to a sustainable future with a strong pipeline of green energy projects. His move reflects Genus’s momentum as it scales delivery across transmission, BESS, renewables, communications, and large-scale infrastructure nationally.

“I wanted to return to the private sector and be part of something dynamic and fast-growing,” Fyfe said.

“As a former client, I experienced Genus’s integrity, collaboration and reliability first-hand, which speaks volumes about the culture. The chance to help grow this business was too good to pass up.”

“David joining us is a landmark moment,” Genus managing director David Riches said.
