BP has announced that Peter Mather, bp’s UK head of country and senior vice president for Europe, will leave the company at the end of the year.
Peter has been UK head of country and regional president for Europe since 2010
and recently established bp’s new regions, cities & solutions entity
across the UK and continental Europe. It caps a distinguished career of almost
40 years working in upstream, refining and supply, gas and power, trading,
shipping, and commercial leadership roles across several countries.
William Lin, executive vice president regions, cities & solutions, said:
“We’re immensely grateful for Peter’s unwavering commitment to bp over his
career. We will miss not only his sound counsel but his ability to represent
the company and skilfully manage a broad set of relationships across the UK
and continental Europe.”
After leaving bp, Peter will continue in his non-executive role as Chair of the BP Europe Supervisory Board.
Louise Kingham OBE, CEO of the Energy Institute for more than 20 years, will
join bp in May. Reporting to William Lin, she brings a wealth of knowledge and
experience across a broad range of issues within the energy industry.
Commenting on Louise’s appointment, William said: “We are very fortunate to
have such a qualified successor to Peter in this key role. Louise’s experience
in public policy, issues management and stakeholder engagement, not to mention
her extraordinary network, position her ideally to help advance bp’s
transformation agenda.’’
Louise said: “This is a pivotal time for the energy industry and I’m thrilled
to join a progressive company with a clear net zero ambition. I’m excited to
represent bp’s businesses, and work with partners across Europe and in the UK
to help deliver innovative and decarbonized energy solutions at scale.’’
