Tim Powell’s appointment followed a meticulous selection process, and the advance notice of Tim Kidd’s retirement gave us the opportunity to cast the net far and wide and conduct a thorough and detailed search for his replacement.

Alongside his CV, Tim Powell’s authenticity, honesty and humility stood out, characteristics which our outgoing CFO Tim Kidd also has in abundance, and which have made him such a joy to work with over the last seven years.
