Croda’s Chief Financial Officer Louisa Burdett intends to leave the Snoath-based company next June to become Chief Financial Officer at Spirax-Sarco Engineering plc.
Anita Frew, Chair of Croda, said: “On behalf of the Board and all Croda colleagues, Steve Foots and I would like to thank Louisa for her contribution to the Company. Louisa will leave with our best wishes next summer and in the meantime, a search for her successor is under way.”
Croda confirms that trading is in line with previous guidance and Full Year 2023 Group adjusted profit before tax is still expected to be between £300m and £320m. Principally due to recent currency movements, notably in Argentina, PBT is expected to be towards the lower end of that range.
