Jack is a qualified chartered accountant and is currently a Non-Executive Director at FTSE SmallCap company, Capita plc, where he also chairs its Audit & Risk Committee.
The Company also announces the retirement from the Board and its Committees of Doug Robertson on 31 December 2025. Jack will assume the role of Audit Committee Chair at this time and Non-Executive Director, Malcolm Swift, will become the Senior Independent Director alongside his existing role as Chair of the Board’s Remuneration Committee.
Lynn Drummond, Chair of Zotefoams, commented:
“I am delighted to welcome Jack to the Zotefoams Board. His extensive strategy and finance experience in an international environment will be a valuable addition to the Board as it continues to oversee the Company’s refreshed strategy for sustainable growth.
“On behalf of the Board, I would also like to express our sincere gratitude to Doug for his significant contribution to the Company and, in particular, for his leadership of the Audit Committee during his almost nine-year tenure as a Non-Executive Director. We wish him well for the future.”
