Atalaya names new chairperson
London-listed Atalaya Mining has announced Neil Gregson as new chairperson of the board, succeeding Roger Davy at the company’s AGM late next month.
Gregson, currently a senior independent director of Atalaya, has more than 30 years of experience investing in mining and oil and gas companies, having served as MD at JP Morgan Asset Management from 2010 to 2020 and before that at Credit Suisse Asset Management.
Gregson has a BSc (Hons) Mining Engineering from Nottingham University and previously held various positions at mining companies, including a role as a mining investment analyst at Gold Fields of South Africa.
Davey, who served as chairperson since 2014, will continue as a nonexecutive director until the end of 2024 after which he will retire.
“Over the 10 years that I have served as Chair at Atalaya Mining I have seen the company firmly establish itself as one of Europe's leading copper producers. Recent highlights, such as the move to the London Stock Exchange's main market, show how the company is well positioned for scale and continued growth, and as such I see this as the ideal time to step down as chair.
"I am delighted the board has chosen Neil Gregson to replace me. Neil has significant industry experience and has already demonstrated his strong leadership qualities through serving as the senior independent director. I am confident he is right person to guide Atalaya through its next stage of growth,” commented Davey.
Upon Gregson assuming his new role as chairperson, Kate Harcourts will be appointed senior independent director.
Further, Carole Whittall, currently CFO and director of Yellow Cake, has been appointed as an independent nonexecutive director.
