Victorian Plumbing Group has revealed that Paul Meehan, the group’s chief financial officer, is set to step down and will be replaced by group director of finance Daniel Barton.
Victorian Plumbing said that Meehans advised the board that he wishes to step down from his role on 31 March 2023 in order to “pursue other opportunities”.
Barton will be appointed to the board on 1 April 2023 and Meehan will remain with the business during his notice period until 30 June 2023 to ensure an orderly handover of his responsibilities. Barton has also recently assumed the role of company secretary.
Barton joined Victorian Plumbing in August 2022 from DWF Group plc, where he was deputy CFO for three years. Prior to this, he was deputy CFO and company secretary at Wilmington Group plc, having previously qualified as a chartered accountant at PwC LLP.
Mark Radcliffe, founder and CEO of Victorian Plumbing, said: “I would like to take this opportunity, on behalf of the board, to thank Paul for his significant contribution to Victorian Plumbing since he joined the business in 2020. His work preparing the finance function and the wider group for its IPO in 2021 has ensured that the business has the necessary systems and structures in place to deliver its growth ambitions. We wish Paul all the best with his future endeavours.
“I am delighted that Dan has agreed to take up the CFO position. He has worked alongside Paul since last year and has already made a significant contribution to the finance function and the wider group and the board are confident that he is the right person to succeed Paul as CFO.”
