Senior Management Developments
DCC plc, the sales, marketing and business support services group, announces
the appointment of Tommy Breen as Chief Operating Officer and the resignation
of Kevin Murray as an Executive Director.
Tommy Breen (47), who is an economics graduate of Queens University Belfast and
a Chartered Accountant, joined DCC in October 1985. During his 20 years with DCC
he has gained broad experience and knowledge of the DCC Group. He has served at
a senior management level as Managing Director of DCC's SerCom division from
1996 to 2004 and, for the past two years, as Managing Director of DCC's Energy
division. He was appointed to the Board of DCC plc on 7 February 2000.
DCC Chief Executive/Deputy Chairman, Jim Flavin, said:
'Due to the span and growth of the DCC Group's operations, embracing
diverse market sectors and activities, I wish to delegate some of my
operational responsibilities to Tommy Breen in order to allow me to
concentrate more on strategic and developmental issues with a focus
on the maximisation of shareholder value.
Tommy has made a major contribution to DCC over the past twenty years.
He will work closely with me to drive the continued growth and development
of the Group. His skills, combined with his knowledge and experience of
the Group, will be a great asset in his role as Chief Operating Officer.'
Kevin Murray has decided to resign from his position as an Executive Director of
DCC plc with effect from 30 June 2006. He intends to pursue involvement in the
private company arena in preference to the continuation of a senior management
role in a public company.
Jim Flavin said:
'I am disappointed that Kevin Murray will no longer be an executive
colleague in DCC. His commitment to the Group has been unstinting and
his contribution has been outstanding. I am pleased that he has agreed
to make himself available on a part-time basis to work with us on
selected projects. Kevin will leave DCC with the friendship and good
wishes of the Board and his colleagues across the Group.'
