·      Maria da Cunha is an existing member of the Remuneration Committee and will take over from Lynne Peacock as Chair following the AGM. Maria will remain in her role as Designated Non-Executive Director for engagement with the workforce.

 

 

Announcing these changes, Keith Williams said:

 

"On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank Rita for her valued contribution since her appointment in December 2016. Rita has played a tremendous role during a period of change for the Company, with her strategic, commercial and operational experience. We wish her well for the future."

 

Rita Griffin said:

 

"It has been my privilege to work with Royal Mail plc during the last six years, particularly in a period that has magnified the unique and important role we have connecting customers, companies and countries. It is a wonderful company with great people. I wish all my colleagues the very best success for the future."
