Board changes

Sean Cummins appointed as Group Finance Director

WYG plc, the global project management and technical consultancy, is pleased to announce the appointment of Sean Cummins as Group Finance Director with immediate effect.

Sean Cummins was Group Finance Director of Scott Wilson plc, the global design and engineering consultancy, from September 2007 until its acquisition by URS Corporation in September 2010.

From 2000 until 2007 he was Finance Director of Yule Catto & Co plc, the international chemicals group, prior to which he was Finance Director of BTR Power Systems, a division of Invensys plc, between 1995 and 1999.

David Wilton, who joined WYG as Group Finance Director in February 2009, has decided that, following the successful financial restructuring of the Group that was concluded in July, now is the time for him to move on as the company enters a new and different phase of its turnaround. He will step down from the Board with immediate effect.

Mike McTighe, Chairman said:

"We are delighted to welcome someone of Sean's calibre to the Board. He has extensive relevant public company experience and has deep knowledge of the global consultancy sector through his time at Scott Wilson. Following the capital restructuring completed in July, WYG has entered a new growth phase in its development and Sean is ideally equipped to help lead WYG in the execution of its recently articulated international strategy.

"On behalf of the Board and in a personal capacity, I would like to extend sincere thanks to David for his invaluable contribution to WYG. With his corporate finance background, he played a key role over a very challenging two and half year period that culminated in July's capital restructuring. We now have a very sound platform from which to grow and, for that, David should take considerable credit."

Sean Cummins said:

"WYG is a leading international consultancy with very prominent positions in its chosen markets and geographies. I am very excited to be joining at the point at which it is embarking on a new phase of growth."

Save as set out in this announcement, there are no further disclosures required under Rule 17 Schedule 2 (g) of the AIM Rules.

WYG has today announced its interim results for the six months to 30 September 2011.
