Domino’s non-exec steps up to fill top job
Pizza delivery chain Domino’s today said that its senior non-executive director, David Wild, has become interim chief executive while it searches for a successor to outgoing boss Lance Batchelor.
Batchelor is due to leave in March, when he will join Saga, the travel and insurance group aimed at the over-50s.
Once Domino’s appoints a new boss, Wild will continue in an executive role for two months – in the meantime, non-executive Michael Shallow will become senior independent director.
