ScS Group plc announced the appointment of Mark Fleetwood as Chief Financial Officer. He will join the Board of the Group and take up his role as CFO on 4 September 2023. Mark has significant retail and PLC experience.

He most recently served a five-year term as CFO of END, the digital-led global fashion retailer based in the North East, where he supported the high-growth ambitions with revenue more than doubling to circa £220m. Prior to this, he was Corporate Finance Director at Grainger plc, the UK's largest listed residential landlord. Before Grainger, he held senior roles at N+1 Singer and Brewin Dolphin.

Mark is a chartered accountant having qualified with KPMG in 2005. Chris Muir, the Group's incumbent CFO who notified the Board of his intention to step down in December 2022, will remain actively involved with the business as Executive Director to ensure an orderly transition and to oversee publication of the Group's Preliminary Results in October. Chris will remain available until late 2023, when he will step down from the Board and depart having served his 12-month notice.
