Tue, 09th Feb 2021 07:57

(Sharecast News) - Safety equipment maker Halma said on Tuesday that it has appointed Dame Louise Makin as its next Chair.
Makin will replace Paul Walker in July, when he steps down from the board after eight years in the role, as previously announced.

Halma said Makin has "a distinguished career" in business as a chief executive and board director, working across multiple sectors. For 15 years, she was chief executive officer of international specialist healthcare company BTG.

She is currently a non-executive director of pharmaceutical company Theramex, specialty chemicals company Atotech and FTSE 100 testing and certification group Intertek.

Chief executive Andrew Williams said: "I look forward to working with Louise as Halma's next Chair. She brings tremendous experience and is an excellent cultural fit with Halma and its purpose. She will build on Paul's eight years as Chair and will maintain Halma's track record of stable, long term leadership."
