Directorate Change
CPPGroup Plc (CPP or the Group) today announces that Brent
Escott has stepped down from his role as Chief Executive Officer
with immediate effect. A process to identify a new Chief Executive
Officer for the Group will commence immediately and in the interim,
Eric Anstee will assume the role of Executive Chairman. During the
transition period, Craig Parsons, Group Chief Financial Officer and
Charles Crawford, Group Chief Operating Officer will report to Eric
Anstee directly.
Since his appointment in August 2013 as Chief Executive Officer,
Brent has successfully stabilised CPP, improved processes,
strengthened regulatory relationships and significantly reduced the
Group's cost base. As the Group moves forward to the next stage of
its development with a clear focus to realise the future commercial
opportunities that exist, the Board believes this is best
undertaken by new leadership.
Eric Anstee, Executive Chairman, commented:
"The Group has progressed during Brent's tenure and under his
leadership and guidance CPP has been successfully repositioned for
the future. On behalf of the Board, I would like to express our
thanks to Brent for his leadership and contribution and we wish him
every success in the future."
