Duncan will become senior independent director and audit committee chair at Cazoo. He currently serves on the Board of Trainline and was formerly a non-executive director at ZPG and Rentokil Initial. Duncan holds a master’s degree in engineering from King’s College, Cambridge.
Cazoo recently announced that it will list on the NYSE through a $7bn business combination with AJAX I, a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company founded by renowned US investor Dan Och. The transaction is expected to complete in Q3 this year when Duncan will take up his role on the Cazoo Board.
Alex Chesterman, founder & chief executive of Cazoo, said: “I am delighted that Duncan will be joining the Cazoo board once we become listed on the NYSE. His experience in helping to build large consumer-facing businesses over many years will be invaluable as we continue to transform the car buying experience for consumers across the UK and Europe.”
Tatton-Brown added: “I am really excited to be joining the Cazoo board and to be working with Alex and his team. There are some very clear parallels with my other recent experiences and I am looking forward to helping shape Cazoo’s mission to digitally disrupt one of the largest retail markets in Europe, used cars, worth over $700bn annually.”
