BP Appoints Ian Tyler as New Chair Following Leadership Changes
British oil major BP has officially appointed Ian Tyler as its new chair, following leadership turmoil after the unexpected dismissal of former chair Albert Manifold earlier this year. Tyler joined BP's board in April 2023 and served as interim chair since May 26. Dame Amanda Blanc, a senior independent director at BP, praised Tyler for his experience in governance and executive oversight on behalf of shareholders. Blanc has also announced she will not seek re-election to the board during the 2027 annual general meeting and plans to step down once her successor is appointed.
