John Williams, Group Executive Chairman, Maritime Transport: “This is an exciting time for the Company as we deal with the post-pandemic economy and continue the journey of transitioning the industry as we move towards net zero. In any business, succession should always be at the forefront of the current leadership’s thoughts, and we have been working on the next phase and development of our senior management team for some time.
“Our collective industry experience will ensure that the next generation succeed and continue to grow the business in line with the opportunities that we have in front of us.”
