Rexam, the global consumer packaging company, has appointed a number of new functional executives to its leadership team, as the business continues towards achieving its vision of being the best global consumer packaging company. Oliver Graham joins as Group Marketing Director, while Nikki Rolfe and Malcolm Harrison move to become Group HR Director and Group Operations Director respectively.

Oliver Graham has been recruited to head up the Group Marketing function. He joins Rexam from The Boston Consulting Group and has been involved in several large projects for Rexam in recent years.

Oliver commented: “The opportunity to join the company was one I was delighted to take; it’s an exciting time for Rexam as we work closely with our customers to identify growth opportunities.”

Nikki has been with Rexam since 2008, and has been an integral part of ensuring that HR remains closely aligned with the needs of the business in its Beverage Can Europe and Asia business. Before joining Rexam, Nikki was HR Director for L’Oréal’s Asia Zone and prior to that, she held senior HR positions in Whitbread, a UK leisure company, and J Sainsbury, a leading UK food retailer.

Nikki shared: “I am really looking forward to helping to steer Rexam further along its journey to being recognised as having a truly winning organisation which supports and enables Rexam to compete successfully and deliver on its commitments now and in the future.”

Malcolm joined Rexam in 2010 as Group Director Plastic Packaging, managing businesses in Healthcare, Personal Care and Closures.

Malcolm shared his enthusiasm for the new role: “Following the divestment of both Personal Care and Closures, I’m looking forward to ensuring Rexam leverages scale, shares and implements best practices to drive our operations to new heights of world class performance, and that our procurement and information management functions maximise the value they deliver to Rexam as global teams.”

Prior to Rexam, Malcolm’s roles include Chief Procurement Officer at Nestlé and at InBev (now AB InBev), as well as roles in operations and sales at Bass Brewers and Britvic Soft Drinks.
