Landsec has appointed Moni Mannings to become its next senior independent director.
The former Olswang partner will take over from Edward Bonham Carter on 1 April 2024.
Mannings founded Epoc, a not-for-profit network that seeks to increase the number of people of colour on company boards, and is a member of the Parker Review Committee.
Chair Sir Ian Cheshire said: “I am very excited to welcome Moni to the board as a non-executive director and as our future senior independent director. Moni is a highly experienced and respected City lawyer with extensive property financing experience and also brings her experience of being a senior independent director and committee chair from other non-executive roles.”
Landsec said Bonham Carter would retire from the board at the July AGM, having served for more than 10 years and acting as SID since 2016.
Audit committee chair Nicholas Cadbury will also step down from the board at the end of the year, after seven years.
