Domino's Pizza Group ("DPG" or "the Group") today announces that Elias Diaz Sese, currently a non-executive director of DPG, will become Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), on an interim basis.

Matt Shattock, Chairman, said:

"I am delighted that Elias has agreed to take up the role of CEO on an interim basis. Elias is very familiar with our sector given that he has held leadership roles in a number of major consumer food brands and has experience of being a franchisee himself.

"Elias has a deep understanding of the Domino's business, has built strong relationships with the management team and franchisees and holds a significant personal shareholding in the Group. He is committed and will focus on the continued effective and rapid execution of Domino's strategy while giving the Board time to ensure we find the right permanent CEO. Working alongside our new CFO Edward Jamieson, Elias is uniquely positioned to step into this role as we look to capitalise on the opportunities in today's challenging market."

Elias Diaz Sese said:

"Domino's is a great business with a superb brand and world-class franchisees. For the past three years I've worked closely with the Board and management team to create the current strategy, which I firmly believe is the right one to drive Domino's future growth, and which I'm committed to executing at pace. I'm really excited to get started and to work with our franchisees and colleagues to continue to accelerate the delivery of the strategic plan to deliver sustainable growth and returns."

Domino's will release its third quarter trading update on 10th November 2022.
