Treatt PLC - Manufacturer and supplier of extracts and ingredients for the beverage, flavour and fragrance industries - Appoints Alison Sleight as interim chief financial officer, effective January 1. Sleight, who is currently the group finance and IT director, will report to the board but will not be appointed as a director of the company. She will also be appointed as company secretary.

Treatt’s appointment follows news that Ryan Govender, the current CFO, will become interim chief executive officer from January 1, following Daemmon Reeves’s retirement as CEO from December 31. Treatt says it is making good progress in its process to appoint a permanent CEO and will make an announcement in due course.

Chair Vijay Thakrar says: ‘The board is delighted that Alison is taking the role of Interim CFO to support the business when Ryan becomes interim CEO in January. With a proven track record in her current role and a detailed understanding of the operations at Treatt, Alison is well placed to be an effective and successful interim CFO.’
