The Board is responsible for the overall leadership and management of the Group.
Overall responsibility for day to day management of the business and implementation of approved strategy lies with the Chief Executive, with financial matters managed by the Group Finance Director. The Non-Executive Chairman
is responsible for leadership of the Board and ensuring its effectiveness in all aspects of its role. The Senior Non-Executive Director supports the Non-Executive Chairman in his role; acts as an intermediary for other Non-Executive Directors when necessary and leads the Non-Executive Directors in the oversight of the Chairman. The Company Secretary’s role includes providing guidance to the Board on its duties and ensuring that the Board complies with relevant legislation and the Articles of Association of the Company.
To ensure suitably defined separation of the responsibilities of the Board and the running of the Group’s business, the Board has a formal schedule of matters reserved to it (available here).
