Cox tenure extended at Ofwat

Jonson Cox has been reappointed to remain as chair of Ofwat until 2021.

His position as non-executive chair of the water regulator was previously set to end in 2020 but has been further extended for another year to 30 October 2021.

Cox has held the non-executive chair position since November 2012 and was renewed in 2015.

Having previously worked at Yorkshire Water, Cox was appointed to the position at Ofwat to resolve issues between water companies, investors and the regulator.

He has been outspoken about the behaviour of water companies that has caused loss of trust among customers and called for those companies to be held to account for their actions.
