LONDON, Oct 9 (Reuters) - British home improvement group
Kingfisher has appointed Bernard Bot as chief financial
officer, it said on Wednesday.
His appointment comes less than a month after new chief
executive Thierry Garnier started work at the group, whose main
businesses are B&Q in Britain and Castorama in France and other
countries. Bot will take up the role on Oct. 21.
He was most recently finance chief at Travelport Worldwide,
a global technology platform.
Kingfisher also said that John Wartig, who joined the group
as interim CFO in April, has been appointed to the newly created
role of chief transformation and development officer.
