Commenting on today's announcement Mark Pesco, IQ-EQ Group CEO said: "I am delighted that John Legrand is taking up the role as Deputy Group CEO. Since joining the business in 2020, John has delivered strong financial performance and created a commercially aware and performance-based culture across his region. He has an in-depth knowledge of our business and has proven his abilities to build diverse teams, engage the organisation at scale and successfully deliver numerous tech-enabled and employee-focused initiatives. Investment in our people and the development of our people centric company culture is at the forefront of our success. I look forward to having his expert support as we look to deliver the future growth potential of this dynamic business.

Richard's significant industry experience and clear focus on people will enable him to quickly add value to IQ-EQ. We have a bright and exciting future ahead and in both John and Richard, we have the people and industry expertise to help us deliver it.
