GB Group plc has named its next CEO as Chris Clark (pictured) will retire at the end of January 2024.
The Chester firm, which develops digital location, identity and identity fraud software, said Clark will be available to advise the company until 30th July next year.
Following the conclusion of a rigorous selection process by the nomination committee, it has announced that Dev Dhiman has been promoted to chief executive designate. He will join the board on 30th January 2024, when Clark retires.
Dhiman joined GBG in November 2020 as managing director, Asia Pacific. During the past three years its APAC business has consistently delivered year-on-year revenue growth. He previously spent 12 years at Experian.
