Kier hires Andrew Davies as chief executive

摘要

Andrew Davies has been named Kier's new chief executive, more than a year after he had been about to take the helm at Carillion, writes Will Ing. Davies was chief executive of Wates between 2014 and 2017 but left to head up Carillion. He had been due to join the firm a week after its collapse last January. Since then Davies has maintained a low profile, continuing his work as a non-executive board member at aerospace firm Chemring but making no statements about Carillion or his future.
