It is the Company's intention to appoint two independent non executive directors. We are a privately owned organisation turning over £110M with pre-tax profits in excess of £5M and around 700 employees. The principal activity is Civil Engineering. It is the Company's intention to appoint two independent non executive directors. It is anticipated that one candidate would have a strong financial background, possibly a former FD of a medium sized company who has taken early retirement or who has lost his/her position due to takeover. The other candidate would have a broader base in management. He/she may hold similar positions in other non competitor companies. A construction background is not a requirement for either. Either candidate may be appointed as senior non executive and or chairman or lady chairman or deputy. Duties will include leading audit and remuneration committees. It is likely that the Company will move towards a listing in the not too distant future and some experience in that direction would be helpful. We are based in the North of England and therefore residence in the North or Midlands would be mutually more convenient.
