MONTREAL, March 19, 2020 /CNW Telbec/ - SNC-Lavalin (TSX: SNC) is pleased to announce the nomination of Ms. Mary-Ann Bell to the Board of Directors as part of the ongoing renewal process focused on meeting the evolving needs of the Company and supporting its strategic objectives and long-term sustainability.
Ms. Bell is an industrial engineer by background, who has developed compelling managerial and leadership skills through a successful career in telecommunications at Bell Canada and Bell Aliant Regional Communications until 2014. She held various management positions over the years, including as a Senior Vice-President for Quebec and Ontario from 2009 to 2014. She previously was Chief Operating Officer for the Quebec business and a key leader in setting up a Quebec business for Bell Aliant.
Ms. Bell's interest in governance brought her to contribute to many not-for-profit, private and publicly traded company boards, and she is also a Corporate Director for the Institute for Governance of Private and Public Organizations (IGOPP). She currently serves as a director of NAV CANADA and of Cogeco Inc (the diversified holding corporation which operates in the communications and media sectors).
