Changes to the ALD Board of Directors

Following the departure from his position as Deputy Chief Executive Officer of Societe Generale on 4 August 2020, Philippe Heim informed the Board of ALD of his decision to resign from his positions as Board member and Chairman of the Board of Directors, effective 27 August 2020.

Accepting Philippe Heim’s decision, the Board has decided to co-opt as Board member Diony Lebot, Deputy Chief Executive Officer of Societe Generale, for the remaining term of office of Philippe Heim, i.e. until the General Shareholders' Meeting called to approve the 2022 financial statements. Diony Lebot’s appointment as Board member is to be ratified by the next General Assembly. The Board has also appointed Diony Lebot as its Chair for the duration of her term of office as Board member.

The appointment of Diony Lebot as Chair of the Board has no impact on the ALD general management team appointed on 27 March 2020, the Board having confirmed the separation of the functions of Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.

Diony Lebot, Deputy CEO of Societe Generale and Chair of ALD’s Board of Directors, commented: “On behalf of the members of the Board, I would like to warmly thank Philippe Heim for his contribution and support to the development of ALD, as Director and Chairman of the Board of Directors, and also in his previous senior positions at SG. I am honoured and proud to join ALD’s Board of directors and I look forward to working with the Board and ALD leadership team to support the continued growth of ALD as a global leader in providing clients with the best mobility solutions”.
