Jamie brings leading digital product expertise to the Board,
having worked since 2013 for Google, where he has held roles
defining new platforms and ecosystems, including as Head of Digital
Platform Experiences and Head of Extended Reality (XR) Platform
Enablement. Prior to joining Google, Jamie founded and led Glasses

Following the previously announced departure of Vicky Griffiths,

Carolyn and Jamie to the Board of RM. Both are accomplished
business leaders who bring valuable and relevant current tech
insight, complementing the existing strengths of the board which
already has considerable depth in technology, finance, capital
markets and transformation experience. The skills they bring to the
table will be key for RM's platform and growth strategy.
"I would also like to thank Vicky, Patrick and Charles for their
valuable contributions to the Company during their time at RM. On
behalf of the Board, I wish them all the best for the future."
