Appointment of Chair

 

For immediate release                                                                                                                                10 October 2024

 

Games Workshop is pleased to announce the appointment of Mark Lam as Non-Executive Chair of the Company with effect from 1 November 2024.  Mark has been an independent Non-Executive Director of the Company and the Senior Independent Director since 2023.

 

A formal recruitment process was followed with the Nomination Committee working with a third-party board-level recruiter.

 

Mark takes over from John Brewis. As referenced in our recent Annual Report, John Brewis did not intend to stand for re-election at next year's AGM and had therefore asked the Nomination Committee to commence a search for the next Non-Executive Chair. John Brewis will be retiring from the role of Non-Executive Chair of Games Workshop with effect from 1 November 2024, and from the Board of Games Workshop with effect from 31 December 2024.

 

Mark is an experienced board chair and director, whose commercial experience spans both start-up businesses and listed companies. Mark is Singaporean and his international experience includes supply chains and business operations in the Asia-Pacific, North America, and Europe. He has held senior positions in retail, telecommunications, and healthcare, including as Chief Technology Officer of Openreach. Mark is currently Chair of the Royal Free London hospital group and a Non-Executive Director at Lowland Investment Company PLC.

 

The Company will be appointing a new Senior Independent Director in due course.
