Patricia first joined Hilton Foods in 2022 as an independent Non-Executive

international consumer and retail businesses and financial markets, Patricia
has brought considerable relevant experience to Hilton Foods. Previously, she

Mark Allen OBE, Chairman, said:

 

"Patricia's appointment as Senior Independent Director is testament to her
invaluable expertise and the enormous contribution she has made since joining
Hilton Foods as a non-executive director. It is also a sign of our continued
commitment to gender diversity in the composition of the Board and prudent
succession planning. I would like to thank Angus for his dedication to the
role and look forward to his continued valuable insights and perspective as he
deepens his focus on employee engagement."
