Governance

We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of corporate governance and have elected to adopt the FRC’s UK Corporate Governance Code. The Board is comprised by a majority of independent non-executive Directors and led by our non-executive Chair, Christopher Kemball. The day to day running of the Company is delegated to our CEO, Sarah Jones, and her Executive Committee. 

Biographies for Board and Executive Committee members can be found via the links below.

In accordance with the UK Code the Board has a number of standing Committees formed by non-executive Directors, including the Audit & Risk Committee, Remuneration Committee and Nominations Committee. We also have a Service Quality Committee and Investment and Development Committee.

Through executive and non-executive succession planning, we commit to maintaining Board diversity by ensuring that from 1 April 2022 onwards at least half of all Board and Executive Committee roles are filled by women, members of the LGBTQ+ community, individuals of Black, Asian, Mixed or ethnicities other than White British and/or individuals who identify as having a physical or mental disability or impairment.
