R3’s Chief Executive to Depart

13 January 2020

R3, the insolvency and restructuring trade association, has announced that its chief executive, Emma Lovell, will be leaving the organisation for a new role on 24 April 2019.

Emma leaves with the thanks of R3’s Executive Committee, Council and membership for her contribution to R3 over the course of almost a decade.

In Emma’s three years as chief executive, she has led a restructuring of the organisation and implemented a new strategy laying out R3’s journey to 2023. Emma leaves R3 with a clear pathway to ensure it remains at the heart of the UK’s insolvency and restructuring community.

R3’s Executive Committee and Council has already begun the search for a successor to Emma. More details of this process will be announced in due course.

Duncan Swift, R3 President, says:

“Emma has made a significant contribution to the insolvency and restructuring profession in her time at R3, and we wish her well for the future. We have every confidence in the team at R3 to implement the strategy put in place by Emma. R3 will continue to be the voice of its members, providing best-in-class learning, delivering innovation and insight, and being a home for the insolvency and restructuring community.”

Emma Lovell says:

“It’s been a privilege to lead R3, and I’m sad to leave the amazing team there behind. I’m grateful for their support and the support of Council, and I’m excited about what the future has in store for R3 and its members. The insolvency and restructuring profession has a crucial role to play in supporting the economy – and R3 is there to support the profession.”
