Sian Herbert-Jones Biography :

Siân Herbert-Jones is a member of the Executive Committee of Sodexho Alliance, the world leader in food and management services, and the Group’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Her aim is to strengthen Sodexho’s business, which generates substantial cash flow. Another of her missions is to ensure equitable treatment of all Sodexho Alliance shareholders by providing clear and transparent information on a regular basis.

Drawing on her solid experience acquired over nearly 15 years with Price WaterhouseCoopers, first in London, then in Paris, Sîân Herbert-Jones, as head of the Mergers and Acquisitions Department, played an active role in the merger between Sodexho Alliance and Gardner Merchant, ranked number one in the UK and Europe in the food services sector. She was one of the major contributors to the success of this alliance, which in 1995 made Sodexho the global leader in food and management services.

Attracted by Sodexho’s service spirit and spirit of progress, Siân Herbert-Jones joined the Group with the goal of contributing to its development and has had an illustrious career with Sodexho. Beginning as Finance Department Manager, she was appointed Group Treasurer in 1998, Deputy Chief Financial Officer in 2000 and Chief Financial Officer in 2001.

She was named to the Executive Committee in 2001.

She contributed to the merger with Marriott Management Services, the leading provider of food and management services in the United States, devising and implementing an innovative financing plan. Today, the company, now Sodexho, Inc., generates nearly half of the Group’s sales. In April 2001, she worked on the launch of the Sodexho’s ambitious international employee savings plan that has enabled 19,000 employees in 22 countries to become shareholders. She also played a key role in the Sodexho Alliance IPO on the New York Stock Exchange in April 2002.

Today, her focus is on determining the impact of IFRS standards on the consolidated accounts, assessing internal audit procedures and strengthening corporate governance, to bring the Group in line with the new Financial Security Act in France and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in the United States.

Siân Herbert-Jones was born in 1960. Although she misses the mountains in the northern part of her native Wales, she is nonetheless attached to France. She enjoys reading history (excellent training in factual analysis) and visiting antiques shops and attending auctions throughout the country.
