Jonathan was appointed to the Board in June 2016, having held a number of senior management positions within Eleco plc since joining in 2010.

I am therefore delighted that he has accepted the role of CEO on a permanent basis. We are nearing the completion of our strategic growth review and, given his intimate knowledge of the business and the markets that we serve, Jonathan is ideally placed to lead the Company through the next exciting phase of its growth journey."
