Proposed Board Changes
Bonhill Group Plc (AIM: BONH), a leading B2B media business
specialising in three key areas: Business Information, Events and
Data & Analytics, announces the following board changes.
Neil Sachdev, Non-executive Chairman, has informed the Board
that he will not be standing for re-election at the Company's
forthcoming Annual General Meeting ("AGM"), which is scheduled to
be held on 27 May 2021, and will retire following the conclusion of
the AGM. Neil joined Bonhill Group plc as Non-executive Chairman in
November 2017. Having led the Company through the dynamic expansion
of its existing brands, two successful acquisitions and the worst
of the pandemic, including receipt of the recent second Paycheck
Protection Program (PPP) loan, it is an appropriate time for a new
Chairman to take the Company forward to the next stage of its
growth plans.
Simon Stilwell, CEO of Bonhill, commented : "On behalf of the
Board, I would like to express our sincere thanks to Neil for his
support, inspiration and commitment, particularly since the
acquisition of Investment News in August 2018. During this time, we
have all benefitted from his broad business experience and
leadership and Neil has been personally engaged with our employees
and the business throughout. He leaves the Bonhill Group with our
gratitude and very best wishes for the future."
The Company is also pleased to announce the appointment of
Jonathan Glasspool as Non-executive Chairman with effect from the
conclusion of the AGM. Jonathan is a very experienced executive and
Non-executive Director, with highly relevant expertise across
digital and subscription revenues and in corporate strategy,
M&A, international operations, corporate governance and
corporate development. Until July 2020, Jonathan was Executive
Director of Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, Managing Director at
Bloomsbury's non-consumer division and President of Bloomsbury USA
and India. He was instrumental in founding and building Bloomsbury
Academic and Professional. He is Chair of Governors of Bath Spa
University, Chair of Mall Galleries and Chair of the Industry
Advisory Board at Oxford Brookes University.
Simon Stilwell, CEO of Bonhill, said : "On behalf of the Board,
I would like to welcome Jonathan to the Company. We look forward to
working with him as we continue to build our global brands,
including our focus on recurring digital and subscription revenues.
It is an exciting time to be joining Bonhill as the Group continues
its transformation following the challenges of 2020, and ready to
build on the opportunities before us in 2021 and beyond. We are
very pleased that Jonathan will be with us on this journey."
