Diageo Board Appoints Debra Crew Interim CEO
5 June 2023, London, UK:
Sir Ivan Menezes is currently in hospital receiving treatment
for medical conditions including a stomach ulcer. Over the weekend,
we learned that Ivan's recovery suffered a significant setback due
to complications, which followed emergency surgery on the
ulcer.
As a result of these developments, the Board of Directors has
appointed Debra Crew Interim Chief Executive Officer with immediate
effect, ahead of her appointment as Chief Executive Officer and
joining the Board as an executive director on 1 July 2023. As
previously announced, Ivan will retire from the Board on 30 June
2023.
Our thoughts are with our much-loved colleague, Ivan, and his
family.
Out of respect for Ivan and his family's privacy, we will not be
commenting further at this time.
