At Place UK, we’re proud to announce the appointment of Linda Evans and Matt Smith as our new Co-Managing Directors.
Having previously served as Commercial Director and Finance Director respectively, Linda and Matt bring a wealth of experience and a deep understanding of the business to their new roles.
Their appointment also marks a significant milestone for Place UK, becoming the first Co-Managing Directors in our 72-year history.
Together, they will provide complementary leadership across the business. Linda will lead our commercial activities, people and culture, while Matt will oversee finance, IT and operations.
Their shared commitment to collaboration and empowering our team reflects the values that have underpinned Place UK for generations.
Speaking about their appointments, Matt said: “We have an exceptional team at Place UK, and I am delighted to take on this new role with Linda. We share the belief that our people are our most important asset, and we’re looking forward to empowering colleagues to continue delivering an exceptional range of products and services to our customers.”
Linda added: “I’m looking forward to jointly leading this ambitious family-founded business as it continues a high growth trajectory.”
As a family-founded business established more than 70 years ago, we’re incredibly proud of our heritage, but we’re equally excited about the future.
Under Linda and Matt’s leadership, we look forward to building on our strong foundations, continuing to innovate and grow, and investing in the people and partnerships that make Place UK what it is today.
