planning, Mike will provide support to the Board and CEO as the Group
continues with the execution of its Powering Up strategy.

Pod Point, helping to steer the business through a period of significant
change. On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank David for his valuable
contribution, hard work and commitment and wish him well for the future.

 

I am delighted to welcome Mike to Pod Point. He brings a strong set of
financial, operational and strategic skills to the Board. I am confident that
he will make a strong contribution to our leadership team and the Group."
