Appointment of Independent Non-Executive Director
Amerisur Resources Plc, the oil and gas producer and explorer
focused on South America, is pleased to announce the appointment of
Elodie Grant Goodey to the Board as an independent non-executive
Director effective immediately.
Elodie spent 17 years at BP, initially joining the Government
and Public Affairs team followed by the Investor Relations team and
the North Africa business unit. She subsequently became the Head of
Communications for E&P between 2008 and 2010, before heading up
the Societal Issues and Stakeholder Engagement team.
As part of her role as the Head of Societal Issues and
Stakeholder Engagement, Elodie was the relationship manager for
major international NGOs and was responsible for investor
engagement globally. Her focus was on social policies related to
human rights and impacts on communities across the countries in
which BP operates.
During her 25-year career, Elodie has worked on an array of
high-profile stakeholder engagement programmes in places such as
Argentina, Libya and the Gulf of Mexico. She is also a Spanish
speaker.
Elodie currently works as an independent consultant where she
advises companies on their corporate social responsibilities and is
involved in the Advisory Board for a professional services group in
Albania.
Elodie will replace Douglas Ellenor who, as previously
announced, will retire from the Board after ten years, on 31
December 2018.
Following the appointment of Elodie Grant Goodey and retirement
of Douglas Ellenor, the Board will comprise two Executive
Directors, a Chairman and five independent non-executive Directors,
exceeding the expected level of independent director representation
for an AIM-listed company.
Giles Clarke, Chairman of Amerisur, said:
"I am delighted to welcome Elodie Grant Goodey to the Board as
an Independent Non-Executive Director. Elodie has a wealth of
experience in social performance and working with stakeholders
including at grass roots community levels, which will be invaluable
to Amerisur. Elodie's appointment represents another step in
Amerisur's commitment to improving its communications with all
stakeholders and will positively impact the communities we work
with."
