Compass’s Freathy named on leadership list

Morag Freathy, chief executive officer (CEO) of Compass Group UK and Ireland’s B&I sector, has been named among the most effective female executives operating in the UK, following her inclusion on the Management Today Women in Leadership Power List 2024. The selection celebrates the most inspirational and visionary leaders across all sectors and professions, and was judged by a range of senior business leaders.

Those included were judged to have demonstrated a measurable impact on their organisations, whether in the form of increased revenues, improved diversity or a significant innovation. Freathy has led Compass Group Business and Industry since 2019 and was previously managing director of Eurest.

'Huge interest'
Claire Warren, editor in chief of Management Today, said: “The inaugural Power List attracted huge interest and has enabled us to shine a light on some of the brilliant – and sometimes unsung – women at the top of successful organisations. There are start-up founders, divisional leaders and CEOs of major businesses among our list, and every one of them has a fascinating story that deserves to be told.”
