The Board of Quindell (AIM: QPP.L) is delighted to announce the appointment of its new Group Chief Executive, Indro Mukerjee, who will join the Board on 7 September 2015. Indro brings strong experience from Board level leadership positions in multinational, start-up and private equity backed technology and industrial companies.

 

Commenting on this appointment, Richard Rose, Non-executive Chairman said:

 

"We are delighted to have recruited Indro, who was the outstanding candidate for the role in terms of his experience, his personality and his leadership skills. He has a proven track record of creating value through developing and implementing strategies based on matching compelling value propositions to growing markets. His experience includes roles in complex environments, often involving fast moving technologies. We are excited to welcome him to the Company."

 

Indro Mukerjee is non-executive Chairman of FlexEnable Limited ("FlexEnable"), a leader in flexible electronics technologies. FlexEnable was launched following the strategic transformation of Plastic Logic which Indro led in the role of CEO. He was previously Chairman and CEO of C-MAC MicroTechnology, a private equity backed LBO from which three market-leading companies were created to serve vertical markets (Automotive, Aerospace/Defence, Communications). These companies were developed under Indro's leadership and subsequently sold.

 

Indro previously worked for Philips Semiconductors BV in several executive board positions, including Executive Vice President - Global Marketing & Sales and Chief Marketing Officer and latterly global CEO of the strategic Automotive and RF Identification Business Units.

His earlier career included his role as Commercial Director at VideoLogic Limited, as part of the leadership team that took the company through an IPO, as well as senior management positions within Hitachi's European semiconductor division.

 

Indro has a passion for the development of skills to enhance the competiveness of the UK in technology, is the founding Chairman of the UK Electronics Skills Foundation and sits on the Board of the Sector Skills Council for UK science, engineering & manufacturing technologies, where he chairs the investment committee. Indro has a degree in engineering science from Oxford University, is a graduate of the Wharton Advanced Management Program and speaks several European languages.

 

Indro Mukerjee said:

 

"I'm of course aware of the challenges the Company has been facing and respect the Chairman, Board and rest of the team for the way that they have been identifying the issues of the past, and dealing with them resolutely and rapidly. At the heart of the Company are some excellent people and great technologies. My immediate priority will be to identify how to drive the development of both to serve our customers and create value for our shareholders".
