developing some of the world's leading consumer brands. Most
recently, she was the Group Strategy and Innovation Director for

at Duke.
Commenting on Pam's appointment, David Beever, Chairman of

to accelerate the growth of its Power Brands. We very much look
forward to her contribution and welcome her to the Board."
