Corporate affairs director promoted
Grocer giant Tesco has appointed corporate affairs director Lucy Neville-Rolfe to its board.

Tesco chairman David Reid said: 'I am delighted that Lucy is joining the board. With her wide experience at home and internationally, as well as her record at Tesco over the past nine years, she will provide a major contribution to the success of the group.'

Deputy company secretary Jonathan Lloyd will today succeed Lucy as company secretary. Both appointments take effect immediately.

Neville-Rolfe joined Tesco as group director of corporate affairs in 1997 and, since March 2004, has also been company secretary. Lloyd joined the grocer from Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer in April last year.
