VODAFONE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE CHANGE
Vodafone Group Plc ("Vodafone") announces that Leanne Wood will step down as
Chief Human Resources Officer and as a member of the Vodafone Group Executive
Committee, effective 1 January 2026. Leanne will continue to represent
Vodafone on the Board of Vodacom Group Limited and the Vantage Towers AG
Shareholders' Committee, as she pursues a portfolio career.
Margherita Della Valle, Vodafone Group CEO said: "I want to thank Leanne for
her outstanding contribution to Vodafone, our colleagues and our customers.
Leanne has played a central role in our mission to change Vodafone through
improving the experience for our customers, simplifying our organisation and
delivering sustainable growth. I'm delighted she will continue to support both
Vodacom and Vantage Towers in non-executive roles and wish her the very best
as she pursues this next phase of her career."
Leanne Wood said: "It has been a privilege to hold the role of Chief HR
Officer of Vodafone since 2019. Over that time, we have transformed the
company together and I'm very proud to have contributed alongside all of our
colleagues. With our portfolio now reshaped and Vodafone positioned for
multi-year growth, it's the right time for me to conclude my Executive career.
I'm delighted that I will continue to be part of Vodafone and look forward to
supporting Margherita and the team."
Leanne's successor as Chief HR Officer will be announced before the end of
September 2025.
