Frozen food firm Iglo Group has appointed Elio Leoni Sceti as its new chief executive with effect from May 23.

Sceti – who brings over 20 years of experience to the role – has held his current position as chairman of technology firm Zeebox since 2010.

Before this he was ceo of EMI Music for two years and held senior leadership roles at Proctor & Gamble and Reckitt Benckiser.

He is an advisor to the board of global brewer Anheuser-Busch Inbev and a counsellor at One Young World, the global forum of future leaders.

Interim chief executive Erhard Schoewel will revert back to his position as non-executive chairman. Iglo had been without a permanent boss since Martin Glenn stepped down​ from the role in January.

‘Delighted’

Schoewal said he was “delighted” to welcome Sceti to the Iglo Group.

“He has an impressive record of encouraging innovation and accelerating top line growth at world class consumer businesses and brands. From many years of working together at Reckitt Benckiser I know that he has the right credentials for the job,” ​he said. “We believe Elio’s experience and track record will lead Iglo Group to realise its growth ambitions in existing and new markets.”

Sceti said: “Leading brands that command consumer loyalty and thrive on innovation will always outperform and I believe the group’s brands have the perfect profile to do so. I look forward to working with the team to build on the company’s strong position and finding exciting new avenues for growth.”
