Company's Senior Independent Director and as a member of the Audit Committee
on 1 December 2024.

 

Lord Jitesh Gadhia, independent Non Executive Director, will succeed Humphrey

March 2021, Jitesh has chaired the Board's Remuneration Committee since 26
April 2022 and also led the Company's search process for a new Chair in 2022.

 

The Company is delighted to announce that Martyn Coffey will join the Board as
an independent Non Executive Director with effect from 1 December 2024. Martyn
will become a member of the Audit and Nomination and Governance Committees on
appointment.

 

Martyn brings a wealth of experience in the area of manufacturing for the
building industry and of supply chains, having previously been the CEO of
Marshalls Plc for over ten years and a Non Executive Director of Eurocell Plc
for eight years.  There are no other disclosures to be made under Listing
Rule 6.4.8(1).

 

There are no matters relating to the appointment of Martyn Coffey that need to
be disclosed pursuant to Listing Rule 6.4.8(2) to (6) of the UK Listing Rules.

 

Robert Noel, Chair of the Board, said:

 

"I would like to express my and the Board's sincere thanks to Humphrey for his
wise counsel and commitment during his nine years as a Non Executive Director
and for his effective stewardship of shareholder interests, both during his
long service as Chair of the Audit Committee and more recently as the Board's
Senior Independent Director. The Board wishes him well for the future. I also
congratulate Jitesh on his appointment as Senior Independent Director.

 

On behalf of the Board, I am delighted to welcome Martyn to the Board as an
independent Non Executive Director. His deep knowledge of the building
industry and particularly of manufacturing and supply chains, will add to, and
deepen the Board's skill sets in these important areas."
