Knights Group Holdings plc announced the appointment of David "Dave" Wilson as Non-Executive Chair of the Board, with immediate effect. He also becomes a member of the Remuneration Committee. Dave has over 30 years' international, board-level and operational experience, having spent 12 years in senior roles, including as Deputy Chief Executive Officer at AIM-listed GB Group Plc, during which time that business grew organically and by successfully completing 14 acquisitions, scaling the group from a market cap of £14 million to £1.8 billion.

In his previous roles as Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer of EnviroFone Group, he helped scale up the business with revenues growing six-fold over three years. Other senior positions included roles as Chief Financial Officer at Codemasters and EXi Group, and Chief Operating Officer for a division of Fujitsu. Dave is currently non-executive Chair of AIM-listed media group, LBG Media Plc, having guided that company through its IPO in 2021, and overseeing the planning and execution of its growth strategy.

He also serves as a non-executive director of musicMagpie Plc, having joined that business ahead of its IPO in 2021. Dave will succeed Bal Johal, who has decided to step down from the board having served as non-executive Chair of Knights since 2012. During his tenure, the Group listed on AIM in 2018, and has seen significant growth both organically and through the acquisition of more than 20 independent legal and professional services firms, with revenues increasing from £9m to £142m over that period.
