Construction materials giant Lafarge has appointed a new managing director to its Leicester-based UK aggregates division.
Lafarge Aggregates & Concrete UK has appointed Emmanuel Rigaux, 38, to the role, following the move of Robert Whetstone, to the firm's US business.
Rigaux has been with Lafarge since 1999 after a short stint in management consulting.
His most recent position was as head of development for Aggregates & Concrete in France. He is moving to the UK for the third time.
Rigaux said: "I moved here first as a student, then as part of my national service. It is a great honour for me to come back as the managing director of our aggregates activity. Robert has had a deep, extremely positive impact on this business, and I strongly believe we can leverage further on the unique assets that we have here in the UK."
