Board Changes
Clarkson PLC, the world's leading provider of integrated
shipping services, today announces that Sir Bill Thomas has
informed the Board of his intention to step down from his role as
the Chair of the Clarksons Board.
As he approaches the end of his three-year tenure, Sir Bill has
decided now is the appropriate time to focus on other roles and
activities and will therefore not be offering himself for
re-election at the Company's annual general meeting in May 2022. He
has agreed to stay on until his successor has been appointed and
will step down from his position and from the Board at that
time.
Peter Backhouse, Clarksons' senior independent director, will
lead an independent selection process for a new Chair.
The Company thanks Sir Bill for his significant contribution to
Clarksons during his tenure and wishes him well with his future
plans.
Andi Case, CEO, said:
"I would like to thank Bill for his leadership of the Board over
the last three years, during what have been unprecedented times.
The Company is in robust financial health and well placed for the
next phase of its development. Bill leaves with our best wishes for
the future."
Sir Bill Thomas said:
"It has been a privilege to be part of Clarksons and work with
many talented colleagues over the past three years. I am pleased to
leave Clarksons with a robust strategy, strong financial
performance and a much-renewed Board. I look forward to seeing the
firm continue to go from strength to strength."
