New appointment to the Board of Directors

September 1st 2026

Announcements

We are delighted to announce Ayah Alfawaris' promotion to Group Marketing and Sustainability Director and her appointment to the Board of Directors, effective 1 September 2026.

Ayah joined Wilson Power Solutions in 2019 as a Marketing Executive, moved into an Energy Policy, Marketing and Business Development role the following year, and was promoted in July 2023 to Head of Group Marketing and Sustainability, a role that brought marketing and sustainability together under one umbrella across the UK and India. Over those seven years, she has shaped our brand identity, grown our exposure across the industry, and established the company's sustainability function from scratch. More recently, she has built and led the specification team, opening a wider business development focus that will be central to her new role.

In her new role, Ayah will bring strategic insight directly to the Board while taking responsibility for group-wide brand governance as the business continues its growth journey.
