Senior service for new chief Berry

ENGINEERING group Senior yesterday appointed former ScottishPower executive Charles Berry as chairman-designate.

Senior said Berry, who was chief executive of ScottishPower’s UK operations from 2000 to 2005, had the “right skills and personality to lead the group through the next phase of its successful growth development”.

He will join the board as a non-executive director in March with the intention of taking over as chairman from Martin Clark in April.
