Based in Sanne’s London office, James will be taking over the role from Spencer Daley who will be moving into the role of Head of M&A and Strategy with responsibility for helping the Group explore and maximise strategic opportunities with both an organic and inorganic focus.
Taking up the role officially and joining the Sanne Group plc Board in July 2018, James will be responsible for managing the financial operations of the global business and its regional operations.

Post listing, James has also been a key adviser to Sanne in all of the acquisitions the business has undertaken.
Rupert Robson, Chairman of Sanne Group plc said of James’s appointment: “I am delighted that James is joining Sanne as Chief Financial Officer. He has worked very closely with Dean Godwin, Sanne’s Chief Executive Officer and engaged well with the broader management team and Board at Sanne. His background will be a great asset in helping the business to deliver its future development and global growth plans.”
James Ireland added:
“I have been working with Sanne for a number of years and watched it successfully grow and go from strength-to-strength. This is testament to its fantastic leadership team and the deep expertise the people at Sanne have collectively. In joining the business, I am really excited to be part of Sanne’s ongoing journey and I look forward to helping to support its continued growth and ultimately achieving the firm’s global aspirations.”
