He is also non-executive Director of Rolls-Royce and was previously a director of the Bank of England and a non-executive director of the Royal Mail and Charter International.
Lord Sheppard said: I have watched Unipart grow under the stewardship of John Neill from a company with one client in one sector to a leading logistics, manufacturing and consultancy group with a strong international business, a growing set of blue chip clients in a wide range of sectors, and an established reputation for being at the forefront of engaging all of its stakeholders in long term relationships.
