ROLLS-ROYCE APPOINTS SARAH ARMSTRONG
AS CHIEF PEOPLE OFFICER
Rolls-Royce (LSE:RR., ADR:RYCEY) announces that Sarah Armstrong
will take up the post of Chief People Officer with effect from 1
January 2022, providing strategic leadership of our People agenda.
She will join the Executive Team from Civil Aerospace, where she
was most recently People Director and instrumental in delivering
our restructuring programme. Sarah replaces Harry Holt who leaves
the business at the end of the year, following the announcement of
his departure on 5 October. Separately, Ben Story, Strategic
Marketing Director, has decided to leave us, after five years on
the Executive Team, to pursue new opportunities.
Warren East, CEO, Rolls-Royce, said: "Sarah has held many senior
positions during her 15-year career with Rolls-Royce, providing
great organisational leadership and delivering innovative people
initiatives. I look forward to welcoming her to the Executive Team.
I would also like to wish Ben well in his next endeavours. He was
attracted to Rolls-Royce by the opportunity to help drive change
across the Group and in the last five years we have renewed our
brand, vision and strategy and we are now well-positioned to lead
the transition to net zero as a global power group and to benefit
from greater digitalisation. I am grateful for the central role
that Ben has played in bringing about these changes."
