After serving almost seven years on Frontier's Board, Charles Cotton will retire from his role as Non-Executive Director on 1^st June 2023.

She also has a range of experience in Non-Executive Director roles. Leslie-Ann is therefore fully qualified to step into the role of Chair of the Audit Committee.

Prior to that Leslie-Ann held a number of internal finance and audit positions, including at Warner Inc and EMI Records, as well as CFO of Polygram Film International.
