Commenting on her departure, Ofwat Chairman Jonson Cox said “Cathryn has been a transformational leader for Ofwat and the sector. As chief executive she has created a dynamic and leading-edge regulator, effective in driving change across the water sector and putting customers first. We are sorry to see her go and wish her every success in her new role.”
Cathryn Ross said “After four fantastic years, I know I will be leaving Ofwat in good shape. Our regulatory approach is now well established and we have a strong team in place. We are set up to regulate the world‘s largest competitive water retail market, and we ready for a demanding price review, which will deliver more of what matters for customers. I look forward to finalising the PR19 methodology before I leave.”
The process for recruiting her successor is underway and further information for interested applicants is available on Ofwat’s website.
