Alliance & Leicester has announced that its CEO David Bennett is on temporary leave of absence due to an abdominal illness.
Group finance director Chris Rhodes is to take on the role of acting chief executive of Alliance & Leicester plc with immediate effect. He will continue in his role as group finance director. Rhodes, 44, is a chartered accountant and has been with Alliance & Leicester for 20 years. He joined the group board as an executive director in June 2002. Before his appointment as group finance director in July 2007, he was managing director, Retail Banking and before that operations director. Sir Derek Higgs, chairman of Alliance & Leicester (LSE:AL), said, “We wish David well and look forward to welcoming him back fit and well in due course. In the meantime, as we do not expect his return in the short term, the board has asked Chris to take on the role of acting chief executive in addition to his current responsibilities.” Related links |
