Grupo Prisa continues with the remodeling of its executive leadership. The company’s Board of Directors approved this Tuesday the appointment of Joseph Oughourlian as non-executive chairman of the group, at the proposal and prior report of the Appointments, Remuneration and Corporate Governance Committee (CNRGC), as the company has informed in a statement.
Oughourlian held the vice-presidency since April 2019 and his appointment as president has been carried out within the framework of the Succession Plan launched by the Board of Directors after the resignation, last December, of the previous Chairman of the Board.
As a consequence of the condition of proprietary director of the Chairman of the Board, the appointment of the independent director has been agreed Rosauro Varo as vice president of the Board of Directors and the continuity of Beatrice of Clermont-Tonnerre as coordinating director and president of the Appointments, Remuneration and Corporate Governance Committee.
Departure of Javier de Jaime
On the other hand, the independent director Javier de Jaime has communicated his resignation as a member of the Board and, therefore, as a member of the Delegate Committee, by means of a letter dated today, February 23, 2021, in the expectation that his current professional situation will make it difficult for him to attend to his responsibilities as director and member of the Executive Committee of Prisa,
The Board has also agreed to appoint Pepita Marin Rey-Stolle as a director, with the category of independent, to fill the vacancy left by Javier de Jaime. “The professional profile and experience of Pepita MarÃn fit with the matrix of competencies prepared by the CNRGC, providing the professional and personal skills required by the Board of Directors, in particular, experience in E-commerce and digitization, auditing, entrepreneurship, and renewal generational “, includes the note drawn up by the company.
After his appointment, Joseph Oughourlian assured that “with the changes in the Board of Directors we want to initiate a stage of transformation and generational change within the Board itself and the organization”. “The profiles incorporated into the positions of the Board will allow us to promote, together with the CEO of the Group, Manuel Mirat, the roadmap of the company,” he says.
