KELLER GROUP PLC BOARD APPOINTMENT

Further to Keller's announcement in September 2014 that its Chief Executive,
Justin Atkinson, had informed the Board of his intention to retire from the
Company by the end of 2015, Keller today announces the appointment of Alain
Michaelis as its Chief Executive with effect from the close of the Company's
Annual General Meeting on 14 May 2015, when Justin will step down from the
role. Alain will also replace Justin as Chairman of the Executive Committee as
at that date.

Alain has spent his career leading operational and engineering teams in the
industrial sector. Most recently, he was the Group Operations Director of
Rolls-Royce plc where he also served as a major divisional head. Previously, he
has held senior leadership positions at Tenneco, a Tier 1 automotive supplier,
and at Wolseley, the building products distributor. Alain began his career as a
mechanical engineer with Arup, working on building design projects.

Roy Franklin, Chairman of Keller, commented:

"We are delighted that Alain is joining us as Chief Executive. He is a highly
experienced senior executive who brings considerable understanding of the
complex multinational environment in which Keller operates. We are all looking
forward to working with Alain and warmly welcome him to the Group.

The Board would also like to take this opportunity to express their sincere
appreciation to Justin for the very significant contribution that he has made
during his eleven years as Chief Executive."

Alain Michaelis said:

"I am very pleased to be joining Keller. The Company has a great history and is
well positioned for the future. I am very much looking forward to working with
the teams around the world and am honoured to lead the next phase of Keller's
development."

The resolution to shareholders proposing Justin's re-election as a Director of
the Company contained in the Notice of Meeting dated 2 March 2015 is withdrawn.
As previously advised, Justin's employment with the Company will cease at the
end of the year when the information required under section 430(B) of the
Companies Act 2006 in relation to his retirement will be made available on
Keller's website.

There is no additional information required to be disclosed pursuant to
paragraph LR9.6.13R of the Listing Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority.
