This senior appointment will not only enhance our talented executive team, but it will also allow us to personally increase our efforts to deliver on our strategic plan of acquiring the highest quality assets in the UK and continental Europe combined with organic growth through new openings and the implementation of other key initiatives.”
McNair will continue to work alongside Richards in his capacity as deputy CEO.
