Appointment of new Chief Financial Officer 
SThree plc, the only global pure-play specialist staffing business focused on roles in Science, Technology, Engineering

entrepreneurial drive and strong market positions. 
 
Andrew was previously CFO of Hyve Group plc, a global exhibitions business, and was instrumental in leading it through 
a period of significant transformation and rapid international growth which resulted in its promotion to the FTSE 250. 
Before joining Hyve in 2016, Andrew held a number of roles at Ebiquity plc, joining as Group Financial Controller in 
2007 and quickly being appointed as CFO in 2008. In 2014 he was promoted to Chief Financial and Operating Officer. 
Andrew trained and qualified as a Chartered Accountant with PwC, working with them from 1998 until 2007. 
 
Further to the announcement on 25 January 2021, the current CFO, Alex Smith, will step down from the Board in July, 
following which he will remain with the company to effect an orderly handover. 
 
James Bilefield, Chairman, commented: 
 
"The Board and I are looking forward to working with Andrew in taking the Group forward to its next stage of growth and 
development. An accomplished CFO, Andrew's focus on driving growth, best practice and delivery of data-led performance 
management will be central to the delivery of our core purpose to bring skilled people together to build the future." 
 
"On behalf of the Board I would like to thank Alex for his significant contributions to SThree since joining the Group 
as CFO in 2008. His energy and drive has helped to build and steer SThree's financial strategy, approach to risk 
management and investor relationships and we wish him every success in the future." 
 
Mark Dorman, CEO, commented: 
 
"I am delighted to welcome Andrew to SThree and I'm looking forward to working closely with him as we continue to drive 
change and further deliver rapid growth and financial strength.  Andrew's impressive experience in ambitious companies 
will be crucial to delivering our vision through the next stages of our development." 
 
"I would like to extend my deepest thanks to Alex for his contributions to the Group for over 13 years and for his 
partnership and guidance since I joined the Company. He has directed us expertly through challenging market conditions 
and more recently the delivery of a successful capital markets day, resulting in the excellent financial and share 
price performance we see today.  On behalf of the entire senior leadership team at SThree, I wish Alex the very best." 
 
Andrew Beach commented: 
 
"This is an exciting time to join SThree. I'm drawn by its strong leadership, clear strategy and vision.  In spite of 
headwinds across the talent and recruitment industries during the pandemic, the Group is performing strongly, with an 
ever-increasing demand for STEM skills globally.  I look forward to working with the Board and the senior leadership
