Oak Group's Chief Operating Officer has become the business' Chief Executive Officer, following the departure of Stuart Platt-Ransom.

Graham McCormack has served as Acting CEO since Mr Platt-Ransom left the role earlier this month and his permanent appointment has now been confirmed with immediate effect.

”It is an honour and a privilege to take the helm of this great group," he said. "I have a top team behind me as we look forward to offering our valued clients an even better and more comprehensive service over the coming years."

Mr McCormack's career at Oak began as Finance Director of Oak Trust (Guernsey) Limited in 2007. He previously served as Oak’s Chief Financial Officer following the acquisition of the Oak Trust Group in 2018.

Having been on that journey since the inception of the business, Oak Group Chairman Mark Chasey said Mr McCormack was well-placed to lead the group in its next chapter. 

“We are delighted that Graham has stepped up to the role of CEO at an exciting time for Oak Group," he said. The group is well-positioned in the market to grow across a number of territories and we have expanded and strengthened many of our teams in the past year.”
