Davies was due to take top job at Carillion a week after it collapsed

Andrew Davies has been named Kier’s chief executive more than a year after he was due to take over the helm at Carillion.

Davies was chief executive of Wates between 2014 and 2017 but left to head up Carillion. He had been due to take over the firm a week after it collapsed on 15 January last year.

Since then Davies has maintained a low profile, continuing his work as a non-executive board member at aerospace firm Chemring but making no statements about Carillion or his future.
