Directorate Changes
Devro, one of the world's leading manufacturers of collagen
products for the food industry, announces the appointment of Lesley
Jackson to the Board as an independent non-executive director of
the Company and chair of the Audit Committee with effect from 1 May
2020.
Lesley was the Group Chief Financial Officer for Stock Spirits
PLC from 2011 to 2017, prior to which she held similar positions at
William Grant & Sons, and at United Breweries (an Indian listed
public company). She is a non-executive director of Trackwise
Designs PLC (where she also chairs both the Audit and Remuneration
Committees) and at Aberforth Split Level Income Trust plc. Lesley
is a chartered accountant, having qualified with KPMG.
Devro also announces that Jane Lodge, non-executive director,
will not seek re-election as a director of the Company at the
Company's forthcoming Annual General Meeting on 30 April 2020
("AGM"), and that she will retire from the Board from the end of
the AGM on that date.
Lesley Jackson will succeed Jane Lodge as chair of Devro's Audit
Committee on 1 May 2020 when she will also become a member of both
the Executive Remuneration and Nomination Committees.
In a further change of responsibilities, Malcolm Swift will take
over from Paul Withers as chair of the Company's Executive
Remuneration Committee from the close of the AGM. Malcolm has
served as a member of the Committee since he joined the Board as a
non-executive director in April 2017.
Steve Good, Devro's Chairman, said:
"I am delighted to welcome Lesley to Devro's Board of Directors.
She brings extensive finance and business experience from her roles
in international manufacturing businesses and will add skills and
insights that will be a valuable addition to support the
development and execution of the Company's growth strategy.
"On behalf of the Board, I would also like to thank Jane for her
invaluable service as a non-executive director and chair of the
Audit Committee for more than eight years and wish her well for the
future."
Nothing in connection with Lesley's appointment falls to be
disclosed under LR 9.6.13.
