As de Novo prepares for the next stage of its growth, having appointed new Chief Executive Lynette Slater in September, three senior leaders have joined the Board of Directors.
Tracy Stephenson, previously Head of Finance, has stepped up to Chief Financial Officer; VP Business Development Helen Crisostomo has been promoted to Chief Commercial Officer; and Alex Alexandru is now Chief Operating Officer for Consulting.
Existing Board members Tara Dewar and Charlene Young have taken on additional responsibilities: Tara is now Chief Operating Officer for BPO and Support Services, while Charlene will manage IT and Compliance as part of her role as Chief People Officer.
The following Directors will remain in their current roles: Ian Carline (Chief Technology Officer), Ramya Govindarajan (Chief Operations Officer for de Novo India), and Tom Mann (Chief Operations Officer for de Novo Consulting Services). Completing the group, alongside Lynette and Executive Director and Founder Mark Sweeny, are three Non-Executive Directors: Richard Summerfield, Clive Swan, and Tim Warner.
Lynette said:
“It’s fantastic to see three internal promotions which will strengthen our Board of Directors – as well as existing Directors taking on additional responsibilities. We are committed to furthering the success and growth of de Novo, and the wealth and depth of experience represented by the Board – alongside that of the wider team – is a crucial factor in helping us achieve our goals.
“The internal promotions to the Board reflect our commitment to encouraging career development, and supporting the talented individuals across our teams who have the motivation and skills to take on more senior roles.
“It’s also hugely reassuring to have people who inherently understand not only de Novo’s way of working, but also the wider industry, to support me as I join the company. The level of experience in the Board room is impressive – and so too is the level of innovation, dedication and knowledge I am already seeing shining through from the wider teams.”
