Designate. Sir Ian will join the Board as Non-Executive Director

Sir Ian is currently Chair of Channel 4, Spire Healthcare Group

Sir Ian's executive career was spent in retail, customer-focused
businesses in senior leadership and commercial roles, latterly as
Group Chief Executive of Kingfisher Plc from 2008 to 2015. He
previously held FTSE 100 Non-Executive Director roles at Barclays
Plc (and as Chairman of Barclays Bank UK), and at Whitbread Plc,
where he was Senior Independent Director. He was also lead
non-executive director at the UK Cabinet Office and Department for
Work and Pensions.
Cressida Hogg commented:
" On behalf of the Board, I am pleased to be welcoming someone
of Sir Ian Cheshire's calibre as my successor. Sir Ian brings
extensive and valuable executive and non-executive experience
across a range of sectors. I know he will provide the Board with
strong and effective leadership and will be a great support to Mark
and our management team, who welcome his appointment.
"I would also like to take this opportunity to wish everyone at
Landsec every success in the future. "
Sir Ian Cheshire commented:
"I am very excited to have the opportunity to succeed Cressida
as Chair. Landsec has clear strategic and operational momentum and
I look forward to working with Mark, the Board and the management
team to continue executing this strategy and to ensure we are well
positioned to take advantage of opportunities that emerge in UK
property markets in the years ahead."
Sir Ian will join the Nomination and Remuneration Committees
from 23 March 2023, and assume the role of Chair of the Nomination
Committee on 16 May 2023.
