Although Scott will not join the Board, he is based in Melbourne and will work on a day-to-day basis with Immersion's executive team. Together, Immersion's executive management and finance function will be located at the Company's headquarters in Melbourne, Australia. Kiran Morzaria, a non-executive director of the Company, will assume responsibility for the Company's finance function at Board level until a finance director is appointed. Scott Grimshaw is a Chartered Accountant and also holds a Bachelor of Commerce and Business Administration (Major in Accountancy) from the Victoria University of Wellington. He spent 10 years working for Tattersalls Limited, the international gaming business, with the last two years based in London. He initially worked as Group Financial Controller and more recently was responsible for corporate strategy and business development, as General Manager of European Investments at Tattersalls. Craig Evans, Immersion's CEO, commented: 'I would like to thank Blair for all his hard work over the last 2 years. His contribution to Immersion has been immense and we wish him well for the future.
