BT announces Board changes
BT today announced changes to its Board. Karen Richardson and Tony Ball will step down from the BT Board at the end of the Annual General Meeting on 11 July 2018, having served as non-executive directors for six and nine years respectively.
Jan du Plessis, BT Chairman, said "I would like to thank Karen and Tony for their significant contribution during their time on the Board."
"Karen has been a great asset having served as a member of BT's Audit & Risk, Technology and Remuneration Committees. Having spent more than 30 years in the technology and software industry, Karen's knowledge and experience has been invaluable to BT."
"Tony has also made a substantial contribution to BT, particularly over the last four years as the Remuneration Committee chairman. He has also served as a member of the Nominating & Governance and Technology Committees where his international business expertise has provided significant support to BT."
"I am also delighted that Nick Rose, BT's Senior Independent Director, has agreed to become chairman of the Remuneration Committee when Tony steps down."
