European Directories' Board of Directors today announces the appointment of Peter Briggs to the position of CEO. Peter is a Managing Director of Alvarez and Marsal and has extensive experience as a CEO in many industries.
Cornel Riklin, who has been CEO for the past four years, left the group in October. We are grateful to Cornel for his leadership in developing the group's strategy and for building a strong team of local CEOs and senior executives. He has repositioned the company as a lead generation business and has led the transformation from a print centric to an online and mobile driven operation. We wish him well for the future.
Peter Briggs said: "Our strategy of transforming our business from a predominantly print business to a multi-media lead generation business will continue, and I am looking forward to working with the European Directories team to accelerate the transformation. The impending completion of the group's financial restructuring will provide us with a stable platform from which to grow our businesses".
