(Sharecast News) - Ceramics manufacturer Churchill China announced on Tuesday that Michael Cunningham would be appointed as its chief financial officer and company secretary on a date yet to be announced.
The AIM-traded firm said Cunningham's appointment followed its announcement on 13 December of the planned succession of David Taylor, who would step down as finance director and company secretary on 12 April next year, following the completion and approval by the board of the 2022 annual report.
It said Cunningham would bring "considerable expertise" to the board, with more than 20 years of financial experience including senior positions at quoted and private businesses.
He was joining the Company from AIM colleague Surface Transforms - a manufacturer of advanced materials - where he was currently CFO.
Before that, Cunningham held senior finance roles at Bentley Motors, Aquila Truck Centres and MAN Truck and Bus UK.
He is a Fellow of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, and holds an MBA from the European School of Management and Technology in Berlin, as well as a Bachelor of Engineering degree from Queen's University Belfast.
"We are delighted that Michael will be joining the business next year and have no doubt he will make a considerable contribution to the development of the business," said chairman Alan McWalter.
At 1358 GMT, shares in Churchill China were down 0.21% at 1,172.5p.
