Change at Top of NOP
NOP World has announced that COO Jim Follett will assume overall management responsibilities for its New York-based global operations, when current CEO Simon Chadwick leaves to start his own consultancy. A permanent CEO appointment will be announced in due course.
Chadwick, who has been CEO for the past four years, will continue to act as a consultant to NOP World whilst forming the new Phoenix, AZ-based company.
Malcolm Wall, COO of parent company United Business Media and Executive Chairman of NOP World said: 'Since joining NOP World, Jim has made a major contribution, in particular to the swift and highly effective transition which NOP World has made to its new unified brand... We are grateful to Simon Chadwick for his tremendous input over the last four years and delighted that he will continue to work with us as a consultant. We wish Simon the very best of luck with his new business venture'.
Follett has served as COO of NOP World since July 2003. He joined the company from Information Resources, Inc., where he served as President, US Client Services and Consulting. He also held key senior management positions at General Foods, Mott's USA and Perrier North America.
