A new finance boss has been parachuted in to help lead the turnaround of Interserve, days after the company issued a profit warning.
The struggling outsourcing group has appointed Mark Whiteling, a former interim head of Premier Farnell, as its chief financial officer.
Mr Whiteling, 54, who takes up the role from October, replaces Tim Haywood, who announced in June that he would be stepping down from the board at the end of September.
