Board Changes

The Board of Greggs plc announces that it has appointed Lynne Weedall as an independent non-executive director, with effect from 17 May 2022. Lynne will join the Board immediately following the close of the Annual General Meeting currently scheduled on that date.

Lynne is an experienced People and Business Transformation executive, having held senior positions most recently at Selfridges, and before that at Carphone Warehouse. Throughout her executive career Lynne has been involved in and led transformational projects in several of the companies she has worked for, which have also included Whitbread, and BUPA.

Lynne is currently the senior independent non-executive director and Remuneration Committee Chair at Dr. Martens plc, and at Stagecoach plc, and on 3 May 2022 is due to join the Board of Softcat plc as non-executive director and Chair of the Remuneration Committee. Lynne is also a non-executive director and Nominations Committee chair at Treatt plc. Lynne was previously a non-executive director and Remuneration Committee Chair  of Greene King plc from 2012 until 2019 and William Hill plc from 2019 until April 2021.

The Board intends that Lynne will be appointed as Chair of the Remuneration Committee when Helena Ganczakowski steps down from the Board in 2023.

Ian Durant, Chair of Greggs, said "We are delighted that such an experienced non-executive director has accepted our invitation to join the Board. Lynne brings with her extensive experience of HR & transformational change, and will add significant value to our Board during this transitional phase and beyond".
