Leading provider of personalised customer communication services, Communisis plc (LSE: CMS), announces the following changes to its Board of Directors, in line with the Company's succession planning and to establish a structure appropriate to the next phase of growth.

Dave Rushton and Nigel Howes will step down from the Board as statutory directors of the Company with effect from 31 January 2016 and will leave the Group on 31 January 2017.

Dave Rushton, Group Managing Director, has been with the Group for over eleven years, during which time he has made a significant contribution to the development of Communisis' client proposition, investment in related technology and the operational efficiency of the Group. Under new reporting lines, each Divisional Managing Director will report directly to the Chief Executive.

Nigel Howes has been with the Group for over eight years. He was a non-executive director for three years before joining the executive team in 2010, becoming Finance Director in 2011 and subsequently Strategic and Corporate Development Director in 2014. He has been closely involved with the development and implementation of the Group's transformation and growth strategy, whilst strengthening the financial platform and building capabilities in our Design division. Nigel's responsibilities will be assumed by the Chief Executive and the Finance Director.

Peter Hickson, Chairman of Communisis plc commented:

"The Board is grateful for the considerable contributions made by both Dave and Nigel over many years. They have each committed a significant portion of their professional lives to the development and growth of our Group. On behalf of the Board, we wish them both well for the future."
