JCDecaux UK
announces succession plan to its Senior Leadership
team Chris Collins and Dallas Wiles
promoted to Co-CEOs
Paris, January
14, 2019 - JCDecaux S.A. (Euronext Paris: DEC), the number one
outdoor advertising company worldwide, announces that JCDecaux UK,
the number one in OOH and DOOH, strengthens its senior leadership
team as it continues to digitally transform its business.
Spencer Berwin and Philip Thomas
will step down from their roles as Co-CEOs at the end of March 2019
and will move to new positions as non-executive directors reporting
directly to Jean-François Decaux.
Promoting two existing JCDecaux
Senior Managers, Chris Collins the Managing Director of its Rail
and Retail Divisions and Dallas Wiles the Chief Commercial Officer
will become the new Co-CEOs of JCDecaux UK.
Jean-François
Decaux, Co-Chief Executive Officer of JCDecaux, said: "I have worked with Spencer and Philip for many years and
they have been instrumental in developing and delivering our
market-leading digital transformation. They have secured a
fantastic platform for the future including the contract wins of
Network Rail, Heathrow Airport, TfL bus shelters and more recently
Westfield shopping malls. They will continue to work with the
business to develop channels and partnerships as new opportunities
open up in the digital and technology space. True to our
tradition of promoting internal candidates, I am delighted to
appoint Chris and Dallas to the roles of Co-CEOs, promoting senior
talent from within our company as we look to a new digital trading
future and the build-out of our contract wins. These appointments
underline the importance of both sides of our business - concession
contracts and advertising sales."
