Successor has not yet been named, but will be announced in due course.

Mainboard-listed Jardine Cycle & Carriage (Jardine C&C) group managing director Benjamin Birks will step down from his role on Apr 30 to pursue new opportunities.

Birks, who also serves as the executive director of the company, will officially vacate his position following the conclusion of the Jardine C&C annual general meeting.

He has held this post since October 2019, indicated the company’s website.

The company noted in a bourse filing on Thursday (Jan 29) that the successor for the 52-year-old has not yet been named, but will be announced in due course.

Jardine C&C’s chairman Samuel Tsien said that under Birks’ stewardship, “portfolio companies have enhanced our market presence in their respective countries”.

Shares of Jardine C&C closed 0.7 per cent or S$0.22 lower at S$31.78 on Thursday.
