Directorate Change
Richard Solomons has informed Marks and Spencer Group plc of his intention to stand down from the Board and it has been agreed that he will do so at the Marks and Spencer Group plc AGM on 10 July 2018.
Richard said:
"I joined the Board when M&S was entering a critical period of CEO and Chairman succession. This evolution has been successfully completed and important senior management changes made. I have enjoyed my three years here but now feel that, with the company in excellent hands, the time is right to move on".
Archie Norman, Chairman, commented:
"I am hugely grateful to Richard for both his personal support and for the experience and wisdom he brought to the Board. He provided invaluable help during a difficult period and we wish him well in his next endeavours".
