Jim Hollywood Chairman

Darren joined SENET in 2007 as a Project Manager. He was appointed to the Board in 2014, in the role of Business Development Director. Darren is a Professional Chartered Marketer and holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing, as well as a Master’s Degree in Business Administration (Cum Laude).

Darren progressed his career at SENET as a Project Manager and worked on numerous projects ranging in value from US$10 million to US$230 million, most notably spearheading the SENET team on the Twangiza Gold project in the Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Darren is a strong leader with exceptional interpersonal skills and boasts key competencies in strategy, marketing and finance, which he has deployed in diverse business environments and industries. This, coupled with his knowledge and experience in the mining and engineering sector, reinforced the SENET Board’s confidence in the appointment.

As part of a strategic initiative to ensure the continued enhancement of SENET’s project delivery and engineering capabilities, Hugo Swart, our former Managing Director, will now adopt a new role in the company, as Director of Operations. SENET’s Engineering, Process and Project Departments will report directly to Hugo, in a move that will bolster our operational capacity and utilise Hugo’s pragmatic approach and unique skill set in Project and Engineering excellence. Hugo will also personally focus on key account relationships, which remain an integral part of SENET’s success and business culture.

The SENET board wishes to thank Hugo for the immense contribution that he has made in the role of MD for the past five years, and we wish both him and Darren well in their ongoing commitment to ensuring that SENET continues its evolution at the forefront of bespoke engineering solutions for our clients and the industry at large.
