   later in the year.

   Mark Cook, CEO of RM said: “I am delighted to have Simon join RM. I have
   had the pleasure of working with Simon previously including most latterly
   at Getronics and I am confident that his depth of knowledge and experience
   will play a critical role as we strengthen the Group’s finances and unlock
   value for stakeholders. On behalf of the Board, I would also like to thank
   Emmanuel for his contribution and commitment to RM whilst serving as
   Interim CFO.”

   Simon Goodwin said: “I am really looking forward to joining the RM team at
   this pivotal time for the business. My focus will be about how we continue
   to deliver value as we capitalise on the multiple opportunities across the
   Education sector.”
