Group Chief Executive to retire at the year-end
Creston plc (LSE: CRE), the digitally focused insight and
communications group, today announces that Don Elgie, the Group
Chief Executive will retire from the Company he founded in 2001 to
pursue a career of non-executive roles, with effect from 31st March
2014.
Succeeding Don will be Barrie Brien, the current COO and CFO,
who has been with the Group since 2004.
Don Elgie commented: "I am immensely proud of what we have
achieved since the inception of the Group in 2001. We have built a
group of truly excellent complementary businesses working together
for our clients and in recent years the Group has transformed
itself into a leading player in the digital marketing industry.
I am confident the business is positioned well for the future,
particularly after Barrie and I have worked together to oversee the
co-location strategy creating centralised thriving offices from
London to New York sharing clients more than ever before. I know I
will be leaving the Group in the best of hands with Barrie and the
Executive team. I would like to thank all the incredible people and
clients with whom I have worked and who have helped me build
Creston into what it is today and what it will achieve in the
future."
Barrie Brien commented: "I am looking forward to taking the
Group onto its next stage of strategic evolution and growth. We
have a wonderful list of clients for whom we produce award winning
innovative work with a team of talented individuals and I will look
to strengthen the Group offer behind a central client proposition
that has brand strategy and insight consultancy at the core of its
creative and digital marketing offer.
It has been a pleasure working with Don over the last nine
years, which has been a period of great development and change. Don
will be missed by all of us at Creston and we appreciate everything
that he has achieved since founding the business."
David Grigson, the Chairman, said "I am delighted that Barrie
will be succeeding Don as CEO. He has been an integral part of
Creston's growth and success over the years and has a deep
knowledge of the Group's businesses and the industry. Most
importantly, he has a clear vision and strategy for the next phase
of the Group's growth and development, which the Board is confident
will benefit all of Creston's key stakeholders over the coming
years.
I would like to thank Don for his many years at the helm of the
company he founded and for developing such an able successor in
Barrie. I am confident that the group Don has built will be able to
move forward under Barrie's leadership after a seamless and orderly
handover at the year end."
The search for a new CFO is currently underway and an
announcement will be made in due course.
