Domino's Pizza Group appoints Matt Shattock as director and chairman
He will also be a member of two of the board’s committees.
Domino's Pizza Group announced the appointment of Matt Shattock as a director and chairman, taking effect from 16 March.
Shattock will also be a member of the pizza group’s Remuneration Committee and will be the chairman of the Nomination Committee responsible for finding a new CEO to replace David Wild, and a new CFO, following the death of David Bauernfeind in December 2019.
He is currently the non-executive Chairman of Beam Suntory Inc., a role he has held since April 2019. He first joined Beam Inc. in 2009 as President and CEO, leading its growth strategy and overseeing the integration of the Beam and Suntory spirits businesses as CEO of the combined group following Beam's US$16 billion acquisition by Suntory Holdings Limited.
Prior to joining Beam, Matt held senior roles at Cadbury plc and Unilever. In addition to his role at Beam Suntory, he also serves on the boards of The Clorox Company and VF Corporation.
“My priorities will be building the new executive leadership, while also getting out to know the business, meeting colleagues and engaging with our franchisees to build a constructive relationship. I firmly believe that by working together we can build an exciting and profitable future for our people, our franchisees and our shareholders,” Shattock said in a media release.
