Melrose Industries names Alison Goligher as Non-Executive Director

LONDON - Melrose (LON:MRON) Industries PLC announced today the appointment of Alison Goligher as a Non-Executive Director and the new Chair of its Remuneration Committee, effective immediately. Goligher brings extensive experience from her previous non-executive roles in various companies, including United Utilities Group PLC (OTC:UUGRY) and Technip (EPA:FTI) Energies NV.

With a background that includes 17 years at Schlumberger (NYSE:SLB) and a decade at Royal Dutch Shell, Goligher has a strong track record in executive management and operational roles across the globe. Her expertise in the aerospace sector is particularly notable, having previously served on the board of Meggitt (LON:MGGT) PLC until its acquisition by Parker Hannifin (NYSE:PH).

Goligher, who has earned recognition for her contributions to the oil and gas industry with an OBE in 2005, also holds degrees in Mathematical Physics and Petroleum Engineering, as well as honorary degrees from Dundee University and Heriot-Watt University.

Chris Grigg, Non-executive Chair of Melrose, expressed confidence in Goligher’s ability to contribute to the company’s growth, citing her wealth of senior non-executive experience. Goligher herself expressed enthusiasm for joining Melrose, acknowledging the company’s potential and her role in supporting its trajectory.

The appointment comes as David Lis steps down from his role as Chair of the Remuneration Committee but will continue as Senior Independent (LON:IOG) Director until the end of 2025, as part of the company’s succession planning and board diversification efforts.

Melrose Industries, known for its focus on civil and defense aerospace technology, is expected to benefit from Goligher’s leadership and experience as it continues to deliver for its stakeholders. The company has stated that no further disclosures are required under Listing Rule 6.4.8R regarding Goligher’s appointment.
