LONDON - Helical PLC, a property development company specializing in central London real estate, has announced that James Moss will take over as Chief Financial Officer (CFO) following Tim Murphy’s decision to step down at the company’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) in July. Moss, currently the Chief Operating Officer and Group Company Secretary, is set to join the Board as CFO Designate starting April 1, 2025.
Moss, a Chartered Accountant, has been with Helical since September 2014, starting as Group Financial Controller before moving up the ranks. His previous tenure at Grant Thornton, where he led audit and assurance assignments in their real estate division, has been noted as valuable experience for his upcoming role.
The transition comes after Murphy’s significant tenure with Helical, spanning 31 years, including 13 years as CFO. Richard Cotton, Chairman of Helical, expressed gratitude for Murphy’s contributions and commended his role in the company’s growth. Cotton also expressed confidence in Moss’s ability to lead the finance team and contribute to achieving Helical’s strategic goals.
The remuneration for Moss will align with Helical’s Directors’ Remuneration Policy as outlined in their Annual Report. The company has confirmed that no further disclosures are required under Listing Rule 6.4.8 concerning Moss’s appointment.
This move is part of a planned succession, ensuring a smooth handover of responsibilities as Helical continues to focus on its development projects in the London area. The information is based on a press release statement from Helical PLC.
