WNS (Holdings) Limited (NYSE: WNS), a leading provider of global Business Process Management (BPM) services, today announced the appointment of Françoise Gri to the company’s Board of Directors effective May 6, 2015. A final determination on the committee(s) of the Board of Directors to which Francoise Gri is expected to be named, if any, has not been made.
Françoise brings over 30 years of international business experience to WNS, most recently as CEO of Pierre & Vacances-Center Parcs Group, the European leader in local tourism.
Before joining Pierre & Vacances in 2013, Françoise was Executive Vice President for France, and then for all of Southern Europe, at Manpower, Inc., a world leader in workforce solutions who she joined in 2007. Previously, Françoise spent 26 years at IBM in a variety of roles, including the last 6 years as President and Country GM for IBM France.
Françoise has been on Fortune’s global list of the “50 Most Powerful Women in Business” since 2007, and is a member of the Board of Directors at Credit Agricole and Edenred. She has also received the honor of Chevalier de la légion d’honneur et de l’ordre du mérite.
“Françoise brings tremendous experience and leadership with technology and service focused companies, and we are excited to welcome her to the WNS Board of Directors,” said Adrian T. Dillon, Chairman of the Board. “We believe her proven track record in helping global organizations drive digital transformation will be a great asset to WNS.”
Jeremy Young, a member of the WNS Board since 2004, has chosen not to stand for re-election at the company’s ensuing Annual General Meeting, and as a result the term of his directorship will expire at that time. “On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank Jeremy for his many contributions to WNS over the past 11 years. He has been instrumental in helping guide the company from a privately held spin-off to a publicly traded leader in the BPM space,” said Chairman Adrian Dillon.
