LONDON (Alliance News) - Housebuilder Barratt Developments PLC Thursday poached William Hill PLC's Finance Director Neil Cooper as its new chief financial officer, although it isn't clear when he will make the transition.
Barratt Developments said Cooper will join once he's filled "his contractual obligations to his existing employer". Betting operator William Hill said he has a 12 month notice period "but his actual departure date will be confirmed in due course. In the meantime, Neil will continue with his existing responsibilities".
William Hill is now starting to search for a successor to Cooper.
Cooper has experience in the housebuilding sector, having previously been finance director at Bovis Homes Group PLC from 2007 to 2010. Prior to that he worked for eight years with Whitbread PLC in finance roles across a range of businesses.
