Given the previously announced restructuring of the business, Robin Cridland will retire from the board and leave the Company with effect from 31 August 2018 and will be treated as a good leaver. Michael will commence with the Company with immediate effect to facilitate an appropriate handover period. Michael will not be a director of the Company.  Michael Norris is an experienced private and public company CFO with over 20 years' board level experience. Michael has a strong entrepreneurial background and is a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants. Michael has been appointed on an interim basis while the Board undertakes a process to find a permanent successor. Robin Cridland has been CFO of the Company since 2008 and co-led the flotation on the AIM Market in July 2012. As well as fulfilling the duties of a public company CFO, he has played a significant role in the commercial development and financing of the Company through his 10-year tenure. He is now looking forward to working on other projects, including expanding his non-executive portfolio. John Shaw, Chief Executive Officer commented: "The Board thanks Robin for his dedicated service to the Company over many years and wishes him well in his new endeavors. We are pleased to welcome Michael to Itaconix."
