Susie Farnon appointed as head of audit committee at Breedon Group

UK: Susie Farnon has been appointed as the chairman of the audit committee at Breedon Group. It will follow the retirement of David Warr at the end of December 2018. Warr has held the post as a non-executive director since 2008 and during his time on the board he served as chairman of the audit committee. Farnon is Breedon's senior independent non-executive director.
