DIRECTORATE CHANGES
The Board of Britvic today announces that Georgina Harvey will be joining
the Company’s Board as an independent Non-Executive Director and Chair of
the Remuneration Committee. This appointment will be with effect from 26
January 2024, immediately following the Company’s AGM.
Georgina has many years of experience in advertising and media, having
been Managing Director, Regionals at Trinity Mirror Group, Managing
Director at Wallpaper Group, and Managing Director at IPC Advertising.
After stepping down from her executive career in newspapers, Georgina has
built a successful career as a non-executive director, with a particular
focus on remuneration committee chair roles, transferring her skills
across a wide range of sectors and situations. A senior board member, she
is currently the Senior Independent Director at Capita, where she has
chaired the remuneration committee for the last four years. She also
currently serves on the Board of Superdry plc as Non-Executive Director
and Remuneration Committee Chair and has previously served on the Boards
of McColl’s Retail Group plc, Big Yellow Group plc, and William Hill plc
within the last five years – all as Chair of the Remuneration Committee.
Georgina will be replacing Sue Clark as the Company’s Remuneration
Committee Chair. Sue Clark will remain as a Non-Executive Director of
Britvic for a period of months, before stepping down from the Board during
2024 as planned. The timing of Georgina’s appointment allows for a
meaningful handover period with Sue, ahead of the Company’s next
remuneration policy review and as part of a planned succession. Sue Clark
was appointed Chair of the Remuneration Committee in September 2017,
having first joined the Board in February 2016 as an independent
Non-Executive Director.
Britvic Chairman, Ian Durant said:"On behalf of the Board and management
team of Britvic, I am delighted to welcome Georgina to Britvic plc. She
brings with her a wealth of talent and experience from her many
non-executive director roles and her extensive executive career in media.
While it is not yet time to say goodbye to Sue, I would like to take this
opportunity to thank her very much for the outstanding contribution she
has made to Britvic in her role as Chair of the Remuneration Committee
over the past six years.”
