Owen, together with a newly formed Chairs Committee comprising Owen and the Chairs of the other Board Committees, will provide oversight, support and independent non-executive guidance to the Executive Directors in the execution of strategy and implementation of key initiatives, ensuring appropriate governance and progress with the Group’s strategy continues during this period.
Owen said: “This interim arrangement will allow George to fulfil his wish to retire, leveraging the strong and established leadership team that Link has in place to deliver continuity until such time that a new Group CEO is able to take up the role. I would like to reiterate the Board’s gratitude to George for his leadership over the past 16 years and to welcome John to the Board. We look forward to continuing to work with John, Kok-Siong, and Link’s wider leadership team to drive forward the business.”
