Marston chairman William Rucker is leaving his role to join British Land after five years with the pub group.

Rucker will replace Tim Score as chairman-designate of British Land, following the property company’s annual general meeting on 9 July.

Marston’s told investors that the 60-year-old will step down as director and chairman effective July 8, “in view of his other increased business commitments.”

Rucker is also the current president of asset manager Intermediate Capital Group.

In the past, the banking veteran served as CEO and president of investment bank Lazard, and held a similar position at homebuilder Crest Nicholson.

Rucker said: “I am confident that Marston’s is in excellent shape and in good hands as the company prepares for the next phase of its development with CEO Justin Platt at the helm.” “I wish Justin and the entire team every success in the future.”

British Land, which manages a £12.7bn commercial property portfolio in the UK, also said on Monday that Score would step down after five years as chairman and 10 years on the board.

Score said: “I am very proud to have served as chairman of British Land and am pleased to hand over the role to someone of William’s caliber and experience to lead the business through its next chapter.”

“I am confident that he will provide strong and effective leadership to the Board and will be a great support to Simon and the executive team.”
