Appointment of Chief Finance Officer

 

Yü Group PLC (AIM: YU.), the independent supplier of gas and electricity to the UK corporate sector, is delighted to announce the appointment of Paul Rawson as Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") with effect from 3rd September 2018.

 

Paul has a degree in Accountancy and is a qualified Chartered Accountant (ICAEW) with a history in financial and commercial management in high growth businesses. In 2001, after spending 5 years in accountancy and tax advisory roles, he left KPMG to join the energy industry in what is now the Engie Group, where he held various senior financial and general management positions.

Paul was latterly responsible, as Divisional CEO, for energy solutions spanning the retail supply of gas and power to businesses, the provision of low carbon generation, energy Software as a Service and smart building technologies and the launch of a domestic energy retail offer.

Bobby Kalar, Chief Executive of Yü Group, said: "I am delighted that Paul will be joining Yü Group as CFO and look forward to working with him managing and accelerating the Company's rapid growth. Paul's financial and sector experience, together with his operational skill sets, will prove immensely beneficial to the Group as it continues to pursue its growth agenda."
