Appointment of Non-Executive Director

Chemring Group today announces the appointment of Daniel Dayan as a non-executive director. He will join the Board with immediate effect.

Daniel (52) has a wealth of senior level experience within the engineering and manufacturing sector, including a number of executive and non-executive roles.
