Land Securities Group PLC announced that Mark Allan will now start as its Chief Executive Officer and a Director with effect from 14 April 2020 and not 1 May 2020 as previously announced on 4 February 2020. The reason for the change is that Allan's personal plans for his time between roles have been disrupted by COVID-19 and, as a consequence, he is able to bring forward his commencement date. Robert Noel's intention to resign as CEO of Landsec was announced on 11 July 2019 and Noel will step down as CEO and a Director of Landsec with effect from 31 March 2020. He will remain available to the Company through to his termination date of 10 July 2020. For the period from 1 April to 13 April 2020, Martin Greenslade will be acting CEO in addition to his role as Chief Financial Officer.
