Michiel Lap will retire from the Supervisory Board at the AGM after 11 years of service and Peter de Wit will succeed Michiel as Chair of the Supervisory Board. Deanna Goodwin will also retire from the Supervisory Board following the AGM. Robert Swaak will then assume her role as the Chair of the Audit & Risk Committee.
Michiel Lap, Chair of the Supervisory Board, said:
"We are delighted to nominate Carl Trowell. His extensive CEO, senior executive and non-executive experience across major global power and energy organizations, combined with board roles in Euronext, New York and London-listed companies, brings valuable client insight into managing large-scale capital projects, particularly those critical to the energy transition, a core focus for Arcadis.
"With Carl's arrival, I will retire from the Supervisory Board and hand over the role of Chair to the very capable hands of Peter de Wit who has been on our board since 2023. Peter and I have been preparing this transition carefully over the last 12 months. On behalf of my colleagues, I also would like to thank Deanna Goodwin for her invaluable contributions, especially as Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee."
