YouGov, the international research and data analytics group, announces that,
in line with the Board's previously disclosed succession plan, Rosemary Leith
has stepped down from the Board of Directors and as Chair of the Remuneration
Committee with effect from 30 April 2024.

 

Rosemary was first appointed to the Board of Directors on 1 February 2015 and
has served as Senior Independent Director (until 31 July 2023) and Chair of
the Remuneration Committee during her tenure. Rosemary is a Non-Executive
Director of Proton AG, Non-Executive Director of Intermediate Capital Group

of the World Wide Web Foundation, a Trustee of the National Gallery and a
Fellow at Harvard's Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society.

 

As previously disclosed, a search is under way for a new Non-Executive
Director. The Board will announce any further updates to Non-Executive
Director roles and responsibilities once a successor is announced.

 

Stephan Shakespeare, Chair of the Board of Directors, commented:

 

"On behalf of the Board, I'd like to place on record our appreciation for
Rosemary's outstanding contribution to YouGov plc. We are grateful to have had
Rosemary's invaluable support and expertise on the Board for over nine years
and she has played an instrumental role in YouGov's transformation. We wish
Rosemary the very best for the future."
