EGWA appoint John Green as finance
director and company secretary

PRESS RELEASE ISSUED BY THE ENGLISH WOMEN'S GOLF ASSOCIATION
The English Women’s Golf Association has appointed a finance director and company secretary. He is John Green, an accountant who has held senior management positions with major companies.
John is a member of the EWGA management board and has taken up his duties with immediate effect. He said: “I am very much looking forward to this new role.”
John has spent most of his career with British Gas and IBM, specialising in finance and Information Technology.
During his time with British Gas, John’s responsibilities included ensuring that all computer systems were protected and ran efficiently. He was closely involved in the centralisation of all IT at the company and his ground-breaking work on investment appraisal of IT was the subject of a paper published by the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants. He carried out board level work on enhancing shareholder value shortly before British Gas was split into Centrica and Transco.
At IBM, John managed projects for organisations including Barclays Bank, Boots, Diageo and Adtranz. He introduced many new and money-saving processes.
Most recently he has developed his own finance and training consultancy. John also lectures in finance and accountancy for the Open University.
In his spare time John enjoys swimming, cycling and entering competitions. He is married with two grown-up children.
