Alno UK managing director Adinde Blacquière has announced she will step down from the role to pursue personal ambitions.
The announcement has led to a restructuring of its board of directors, with Alno International chief executive Jonathon Wagstaff resuming overall control of Alno UK and taking charge specifically of the retail business.
Wagstaff will be supported by retail sales director Jonathan Hartley and the rest of the retail team.
Stuart Welburn, who was previously Alno UK’s finance director, will move to head up the project business as managing director of Alno contracts. He will also support Sam Hotten, UKSS channel director, in further developing Alno UK’s worktop division.
In the interim period, Blacquière (pictured) will resume her previous role of finance director until a replacement has been appointed.
Alno UK said it was “saddened by Adinde’s exit, but supports her decision and wishes her every success in the future”.
