Executive summary

Geoff Jones is chairman of TEG (Ticketek Entertainment Group). TEG's March 2025 announcement states he moved into the chairman role after serving as chief executive for fourteen years, and his current LinkedIn profile lists 'Chair – TEG' as his role since March 2025.

As chief executive from 2011, Jones built TEG's integrated model, expanding Ticketek into a group that TEG's own material describes as encompassing more than 30 businesses across ticketing, live entertainment, digital and data. Brad Banducci succeeded him as chief executive in March 2025, and Banducci was in turn succeeded by Cameron Hoy as group CEO effective June 1, 2026.
