Rolls-Royce SMR has appointed Ruth Todd as its new Operations and Supply Chain Director.
Ms Todd, who led the UK’s Covid-19 Vaccine Task Force and previously held a senior role at HS2, will join the team on 30th September.
Her immediate focus will be on the industrialisation and scaling up of the company’s small modular reactor (SMR) technology.
SMRs are designed to provide low carbon energy, with each factory-built reactor capable of powering a million homes for over 60 years.
Rolls-Royce SMR Chief Executive, Chris Cholerton, said: “Much of our work in recent years has been on product development and securing contract certainty – as we make meaningful progress on both, our emphasis moves to the industrialisation and significant scale-up ahead of us.
“Ruth’s experience and expertise in complex infrastructure programmes will further strengthen our leadership team as we focus on de-risking the challenges ahead and implementing our industrialisation plan.”
Ruth Todd, Rolls-Royce SMR Operations and Supply Chain Director, added: “We have an
opportunity at Rolls-Royce SMR to transform power generation and provide clean, sustainable energy for generations to come.”
