Ian Tyler to succeed Malcolm Harris in non-executive role
Ex-Balfour Beatty chief executive Ian Tyler has been appointed chairman of Bovis Homes.
Tyler will take up the non-executive role at the housebuilder from later this month.
Bovis Homes has been searching for a new chairman ever since Malcolm Harris announced his retirement in February.
Tyler stepped down from his role at the head of Balfour Beatty in a surprise move in March this year. He had been in charge of the firm for eight years and presided over it as it trebled in size.
Alastair Lyons, non-executive deputy chairman of Bovis Homes, said he was 鈥渄elighted to welcome someone of Ian鈥檚 commercial experience and understanding of construction and infrastructure to our board鈥.
Tyler said: 鈥淚 am both honoured and excited to be taking over from Malcolm Harris as chair. Bovis Homes is a great company and I鈥檓 looking forward to working with David, his management team and the board.鈥
Tyler is also currently non-executive director of BAE systems, Cable & Wireless and Cairn Energy. He is also non-executive chair of the Al Noor Hospitals Group.
