Supermarket chain Sainsbury’s has agreed to appoint outgoing Great Portland Estates chairman Martin Scicluna as its new non-executive chairman replacing David Tyler.
As previously announced, Scicluna will step down as from the developer’s board at or before its 2019 annual general meeting.
He will work closely with Tyler for a handover period and Sainsbury’s anticipates that he will assume the role of chairman from the beginning of the new financial year in March 2019 or soon after, at which point Tyler would step down from the board.
