Funeral services provider Dignity PLC on Monday named its new chief executive officer as Kate Davidson, just months after she joined the board.
Davidson is succeeding Gary Channon, who plans to remain in the company until June 9.
Davidson re-joined the Birmingham-based company in June 2021 as chief operating officer and was appointed to the board in January.
Commenting on Davidson's appointment, Chair John Castagno said: ‘Kate is highly respected in the sector, and is committed to raising standards of quality, care and client service across the profession. Kate has been instrumental in delivering a number of high priority strategic and commercial programmes over the past 12 months. Her integrity, candour and willingness to challenge has been vital in delivering Dignity's strategy whilst her leadership style has been central to changing the organisation's culture.’
Dignity was trading 0.7% lower in London on Monday morning at 479.50 pence.
