The board delegates responsibility for determining and implementing the group’s strategy and for managing the group to the Chief Executive, Mr Graham Mackay, who is supported by the executive committee (excom), which he chairs. Excom members are appointed by Mr Mackay. The other members of excom are the Chief Financial Officer, Mr Wyman; the divisional managing directors responsible for managing the group’s regional hubs (Latin America, Europe, Africa and Asia); the Managing Director of SAB Ltd; the directors of key group functions (marketing, corporate affairs, and human resources); and the General Counsel and Group Company Secretary. Excom’s purpose is to support the Chief Executive in carrying out the duties delegated to him by the board and, in that context, excom co-ordinates brand and operational execution, delivers strategic plans, budgets and financial reports for the board’s consideration and, through the Chief Executive, reports on these matters to the board.
Excom also ensures that effective internal controls are in place and functioning, and that there is an effective risk management process in operation throughout the group.
