Dear Client:  

After five years at the helm, William Grant & Sons ceo Simon Hunt is stepping down, as first reported by Just-Drinks. While the company hunts for a replacement, William Grant chair Glenn Gordon and cfo Giles Wilson will assume Simon’s responsibilities.

Simon first joined William Grant in 2007, serving first as managing director, North America before becoming cco and finally taking on the ceo role in early 2016. 

“The board would like to thank Simon for his contribution over the past 13 years and wish him all the best for the future. During his time with the company, the profitability of the business has grown considerably, and Simon has driven a large part of this. Latterly as ceo, he has delivered a new strategy for the business and embarked on a significant capital development program from which the company will continue to benefit going forward,” per a statement from the company. 

Until tomorrow,
Sarah
