Lynsey, who has extensive experience across food services, workplace and facilities management in a range of sectors, will be responsible for driving Sodexo's continued growth in the delivery of sustainable, delicious food choices and valued experiences in the workplace. Her remit will span a variety of sites from corporate offices, data centres and manufacturing centres to offshore platforms, refineries and remote sites.
