"During Mike's time at Victoria, the group has grown from a small U.K.-centric carpet manufacturer with revenues of c. £250 million in 2016 to a global flooring group with current annual revenues of c. £1.5 billion," said Victoria chairman Geoff Wilding.
"As you would expect from Mike, he leaves us in a thoughtful way, with a transparent and long-planned timeline, a robust succession plan, and a strong finance team. The board would like to thank Mike for his contribution."
Mr Scott (pictured top left) will stay in his role until August 22 and then remain as a non-executive director until the following AGM to assist with the transition.
Brian Morgan is joining Victoria from FTSE250 group, Synthomer plc, a chemical polymenrs manufacturer, where he has been Director of Group Finance since 2017 and he has a career operating across several multi-national companies.
