Board changes
New Chief Financial Officer and Non-Executive Chairman
The Ince Group plc (AIM: INCE), the international legal and
professional services company, announces that, further to the
announcement on 15 January 2020, the Board has appointed Simon
Oakes, Group Financial Controller since 2018, as Chief Financial
Officer and intends to appoint him as a director subject to
regulatory approval.
As indicated in that announcement, Christopher Yates has now
formally stood down from the Board with immediate effect but will
remain with the business as a consultant to continue the orderly
hand over.
Anthony Edwards, non-executive chairman of the Company, has also
today stood down as a director. David Furst has agreed to take on
the chairmanship. David is the senior non-executive director and
chairman of the Audit Committee, and has been associated with
businesses in the Group for many years. Peter Rogan and Simon
Howard continue in their roles as non-executive directors and the
Board intends to appoint a further non-executive director in due
course.
Adrian Biles, chief executive of the Group, said:
"I would like to thank both Tony and Chris for their help in
guiding and running the Group over recent years and helping to
establish it as a leading international legal and professional
services business.
"I am excited that Simon will be able to step seamlessly into
Chris's shoes, given his familiarity with our operations and
processes. David's long experience of chairing a professional
practice at the audit and advisory firm Crowe Clark Whitehill LLP,
together with his knowledge of the Group, ensures that he is well
placed to take the chair during these challenging times."
