“Recommendations coming out of this review will improve the structure and governance of the Massy Group, which, when implemented, will better the group for sustainable growth and enhanced shareholder value,” the release said.

The board, when reduced, will consist of 30 per cent executive directors and 70 per cent non-executive directors.

“This adjustment reflects the board’s commitment to more efficient decision-making, improved accountability and engagement, enhanced communication and stronger alignment,” the release said.

In a second release, Massy announced changes in the portfolios of three senior officers, in alignment with the recommendations mentioned.

The release said group executive vice-president and chairman of its motors and machines portfolio Marc Rostant will become group executive vice president and CEO, motors and machines.

Over the last year Massy has seen a swathe of changes to its management roster, starting with former CEO Gervase Warner, who decided to retire early in February.

After an investigation into training modules for the company’s executive, former general counsel and executive vice-president Angelique Parisot-Potter, who raised issue with the training modules at the company’s AGM last year, took administrative leave. In January she was replaced by Wendy Kerry, who later took up the role permanently.
