Sodexo has announced the appointment of Ed Morrow as the new managing director of its energy and resources business in the UK and Ireland, following the promotion of Cunera Vlaar to lead Sodexo Netherlands.

Morrow said: “Having worked in this business for more than 15 years, I’m delighted to be leading Sodexo’s talented and dedicated energy and resources team. Our focus is on our site teams and clients to ensure we continue to stay ahead of the curve through our commitment to safety and providing outstanding service and support.
“We deliver a ‘home from home’ service to many with integrated services that support the wellbeing, and meet the evolving needs, of employees working in often isolated and complex environments such as offshore platforms in the North Sea or onshore liquified natural gas plants and refineries.”
He added: “I’m looking forward to building on the strong client partnerships we hold and growing our portfolio of clients in this fascinating market.”
Sean Haley, CEO for Sodexo UK&I, said: “We’re pleased to announce Ed’s appointment as MD for energy and resources. Ed has extensive knowledge of this industry and a clear understanding of the impact the services our teams deliver every day has on the quality of life of everyone we serve.
“We thank Cunera for her leadership over the past few years, which has seen our energy and resources business develop. With Ed at the helm, I look forward to seeing the business grow and innovate further.”
