Appointment of New Chairman

 

Flowgroup plc (AIM: FLOW), which provides residential gas and electricity supply and other energy services to customers across Great Britain, announces the appointment to the Board of Alan C Lovell as Non-Executive Chairman, effective from 26 October 2017. Alan will be replacing John Johnston who has decided to step down from the Board, with immediate effect.

 

Alan has had an extensive Executive career, with time as Chief Executive of six companies including Infinis Limited, Jarvis plc and Costain Group Plc. He is experienced in helping businesses achieve their full potential by increasing turnover, reducing costs and restructuring finances. 

 

Alan was more recently Senior Independent Director at AIM listed Sweett Group, the Construction Services specialist, and also Chairman of professional radio technology company Sepura plc. He is currently Chair of the Consumer Council for Water and Association of Lloyd's Members.

 

John Johnston, Chairman, said:

"I've enjoyed working with the Flow business immensely and I wish Alan, the Board and the Company every success as they play an important part in the future of the energy industry."

 

Tony Stiff, CEO, commented:

"I and the rest of the Board would like to thank John for all his hard work for Flow over the years, especially drawing on John's experience to help with the successful fundraise completed this year. John has been instrumental in ensuring Flowgroup has attracted the funding to continue its development, and in helping to develop a robust strategic vision for the Company.  He will be missed both on a professional and personal level.  Welcoming Alan to the business will, we believe, bring further experience in helping us achieve our goals as we enter a new phase of our development."

 

Alan C Lovell commented:

"Flow is a dynamic business at an interesting stage of development, for both itself and the energy industry, and I look forward to applying my skills and experience to helping it achieve its full potential in an exciting marketplace."
