Accent Group Limited 1  (#_ftn1)

New Board Member Appointment

 

 

Accent is delighted to announce that a new member has been appointed to the
Boards of Accent Group Limited and Accent Housing Limited, following a
competitive recruitment process.  Gerraint Oakley has been appointed from 1
February 2026.

 

Gerraint is an experienced executive and non-executive leader, who brings a
wealth of knowledge and expertise in strategic asset management,
sustainability, growth and development. Across a career spanning a variety of
multi-national private and not-for-profit sector roles, Gerraint has
implemented significant structural and transformational change, and his
experience working in the social housing sector brings insight into the
regulatory and consumer environment currently faced by housing providers. In
addition to his position on the Accent Boards, Gerraint will also sit on
Accent's Capital Investment Committee.

 

Two independent members have also been appointed to Accent's Customer
Experience Committee, as part of a planned succession process. Naomi Sweeting
brings executive-level experience across both social and private housing
sectors, with particular expertise in customer strategy, data-driven
decision-making and regulatory insight, and Phil Morgan brings extensive
knowledge of tenant voice, regulation, and governance, with over a decade of
experience in the social housing sector.

 

On 1 January 2026, David Williams retired from the Accent Board after 6 years
of service. In addition to his Board role, David served on Accent's Capital
Investment Committee and, latterly, the Customer Experience Committee,
bringing insight from his experience as an executive and non-executive in the
housing and interim services sectors. At the same time, Selina Ullah and Bob
Tarry retired as independent members of Accent's Customer Experience
Committee, each after 6 years of service.
