May said: “Like everyone, we’ve been in survival mode throughout the pandemic, and had our own unique challenges to face. The support that we’ve received from our clients, colleagues and suppliers has been incredible. For me, that’s the most positive thing to come out of the last 18 months.
“Now, as we look to the future and emerge from this horrendous time, we’re not just looking to rebuild but to succeed and ultimately thrive. Having Richard onboard puts us in good stead to do just that.”
In her new role as chief executive May will shape the group’s strategy and vision whilst Duff will be responsible for its implementation and lead all business functions including sales, finance and human resources.
Commenting on his appointment Duff added: “At the heart of Global Infusion Group ethos is a desire to make things happen and put smiles on people’s faces. They’re both things that I enjoy and honestly, who wouldn’t want to join a company that has been successfully delivering those things for the best part of 40 years?
“I’ve always taken a global approach to business and the companies that I’ve worked for have been predominately owner/founder led so I understand the existing culture and have the utmost respect for the skills and expertise within the team.”
