Hays announces committee changes, disbands sustainability panel
Hays plc has implemented changes to its board committees, appointing Helen Cunningham as Chair of the Remuneration Committee and disbanding its Sustainability Committee, as reported in a press release. Cunningham will take over from Susan Murray, who is retiring from the board following the company’s Annual General Meeting on November 18, 2026.
Cunningham has been a member of the Remuneration Committee for over a year before her appointment as Chair. Joe Hurd will join the Remuneration Committee upon the conclusion of the AGM. The company has decided to disband the Sustainability Committee with immediate effect, following a review of its remit. This decision indicates that the group’s sustainability agenda has matured, with sustainability considerations now integrated into the business and governance processes.
The board will now oversee sustainability matters, supported by the Audit & Risk Committee and Remuneration Committee as needed. The announcement adheres to UK Listing Rule 6.4.6.
