Potter Group selects logistics heavyweight as new Finance Director

Road and rail logistics provider The Potter Group has appointed Ken Watson as its new Finance Director. Ken formerly served almost ten years on the board of The Stiller Group, first as Group Finance Director and latterly as Joint Group Managing Director. His proven track record in promoting long-term profitable growth in these roles - both organic and by acquisition - as well as time with ICI and a leading passenger transport company, will help him bring a wealth of experience and business acumen to his new role.

Ken replaces Malcolm Steele, who is retiring in October 2008 after almost 20 years with the Potter Group, during which time he has been instrumental in ensuring The Group’s financial health and profitability.

Matthew Lamb, Potter Group Managing Director, commented: “Ken’s appointment is a big step forward in our continuing strategy to build a high quality senior management team, with the skills to expand the business and make best use of the Group’s extensive asset base. We have recently made a number of appointments and promotions in areas such as Business Development and Client Service, Operations Management and Transport, and expect to announce further positive changes in the near future.”
