Grontmij strengthens board team
Grontmij has appointed two non-executive directors to its board: Richard Saville and Janette Anderson.
Richard Saville
Mr Saville is a highly experienced businessman with a career that spans across a number of quoted and private companies, both as a finance director and non-executive director.
His experience across different industry sectors, including engineering, logistics, transport, property, construction and retail, has enabled him to gain a strong understanding of a range of management areas, from strategic activity and restructuring, to funding, refinancing and mbo activity.
Mr Saville said: “I’m delighted to accept the position and am excited to be part of a team that is committed to delivering results. Grontmij is one of the leading engineering companies in the UK and I’m looking forward to immersing myself in fresh challenges and using my skills and knowledge to create new opportunities
and deliver great results.”
Janette Anderson
Janette Anderson also joins as non-executive director and has gained experience across a number of major corporate companies, including as CEO of a £250m turnover business with 2,000 employees throughout the UK. Through this role she managed the day to day business and all key external relationships, undertaking a re-structure of the business into a UK / global projects business, from a largely Scottish based maintenance company.
Mrs Anderson comments: “Grontmij has a strong heritage and has built up an excellent reputation through its highly skilled and efficient workforce. I’m relishing the opportunity to further develop the company and shape the strategic direction, taking on innovative and interesting projects, and implementing measures to grow the business into new areas.”
