Governance
The Board is comprised of five Directors, who bring a wealth of experience and a broad range of expertise spanning a number of sectors. Doug Robertson is considered independent. The two Executive Directors, Steve Ashmore and Richard Jones, bring significant experience to the Board. Alan Peterson OBE is the Chairman of the Board. The Board is supported by Daniel Joll, the General Counsel and Company Secretary.
The Board delegates authority to the following three committees to oversee and maintain governance: Nomination Committee, Audit Committee and the Remuneration Committee. Updates on their activities are reported on at each Board meeting.
In 2022 the Executive team also established an ESG Committee and ESG Forum from a wide range of senior management roles. This committee meets monthly and reports to both the Executive team and the Board also on a monthly basis.
Our approach to Governance is driven not only be legal and regulatory responsibilities but fundamental values of integrity and transparency, and are proud of our strong and effective Governance structure. This is evidenced by our library of well constructed policies, without which we would not have been able to achieve the accreditations listed in the banner at the bottom of this page. Our approach to Governance is driven not only be legal and regulatory responsibilities but fundamental values of integrity and transparency.
