Sheffield-based green hydrogen and energy storage firm ITM Power plc announced that Amy Grey will join the company as chief financial officer (CFO) and is expected to join the company’s board no later than early March 2025.

“Amy brings a wealth of experience,” said ITM.

“She is joining us from Sheffield Forgemasters, where she has been serving as CFO and previously Finance Director.

“Before this, Amy held a range of senior management roles, including Vice President of Finance for Greenlane Renewables, a global provider of biogas upgrading systems, UK Finance Director for Heras Perimeter Protection, a Dutch-headquartered company with a global presence, and Finance and Commercial Director at Kelda Group.

“Amy will take over from Andy Allen, who will step down from the board on the same date. Andy will support Amy in making a smooth transition and assume a different role within the company.”

ITM Power CEO Dennis Schulz said: “I am delighted to welcome Amy to ITM as our CFO, following an extensive search to secure such a high-calibre appointee.

“She will be an excellent addition to the leadership team, and we look forward to working with Amy on the exciting growth ahead of us.

“Today, ITM is more capable than the company has ever been. I want to thank Andy for his significant contributions to getting ITM to this point and for supporting me closely in the transformation of the business during our recent 12-month plan. I am pleased that we can retain Andy in the business.”
