Wed 9th Mar 2016 - Las Iguanas to restructure senior management team as chief financial officer steps down Las Iguanas to restructure senior management team as chief financial officer steps down: Casual Dining Group brand Las Iguanas is to restructure its senior management team as it prepares for major expansion after revealing chief financial officer Kieron Pollock is to step down. Pollock is leaving after eight years in the role to pursue new opportunities and as a result Casual Dining Group will recruit both a chief operating officer and finance director as it seeks to launch approximately 20 Las Iguanas venues a year for the next two years. Pollock, whose role also included board responsibility for marketing, training and menu development functions, will remain with the business until June to oversee the conclusion of the integration programme with Casual Dining Group and conduct a handover to his successor. Pollock was part of a senior management team that has grown the Latin American bar-restaurant concept from 16 locations to 48. Las Iguanas managing director Mos Shamel said: “Kieron has played an integral part in the success and growth of Las Iguanas. He was also instrumental in the successful acquisition by Casual Dining Group and subsequent integration. Now that this work is complete, he has decided to begin a new chapter and we wish him well.” Once appointed, both the new chief operating officer and the finance director will report to Shamel. Casual Dining Group chief executive Steve Richards said: “I would like to place on record our thanks to Kieron for his excellent service and contribution, notably the successful merging of Las Iguanas with Casual Dining Group. He leaves the business in great shape.”
