Sean Curran is to step down as chief financial officer of Revolution Bars Group later this summer after 13 years with the company to pursue other business interests.

The company has announced that Chris Chambers, currently finance director of Ainscough, the market leading crane hire business, will replace Curran and will join the business this August.

Curran will remain with the business until September to ensure an orderly handover.

Prior to joining Ainscough in 2011, Chambers was finance director of Whitworths Limited, the food business. Between 2005 and 2009 he held various roles in finance, IT and operations within Merck KGaA and from 2001 to 2005 he held various finance roles at Novartis AG.

He was financial controller, and subsequently group financial controller, of a Fyffes Plc Joint Venture from 1996 to 2001.

Curran has been chief financial officer of Revolution across a period of significant expansion for the business and he leaves with the Board’s thanks for the significant contribution he has made during that time.

Keith Edelman, chairman of Revolution Bars Group, said: “We welcome Chris to the company and to the Board. He has broad experience of successfully growing businesses both within large organisations and on a standalone basis.

“Sean has been an integral member of our management team during his tenure with the business. We owe much gratitude to him for his significant contribution in that time and wish him well in his future endeavours.”
