Appointment of Chief Executive for WS Atkins plc
29 October 2007
“Atkins had a very difficult appointment to make following the sudden departure of the CEO after only 18 months in post. The specification was very tight, but that didn’t stop Odgers thinking laterally. Keith Clarke is a first rate CEO. He is respected by the staff, customers and the City. It wasn’t easy to persuade him to take this role. Odgers handled this aspect of the search particularly well.”
