MARK WILSON

Chief financial officer, Aston Martin

ASTON Martin declared earlier this year that one of the options it’s considering, to build on recent success, is a stock market flotation that could value the classic British sports car manufacturer at £5billion. As such, chief financial officer Mark Wilson could be in for a busy time, as he works with banks and Aston’s owners on the fine detail of the process. A veteran of Mclaren and Lotus, Wilson has already overseen the return of Aston Martin to profit; in 2017 it made £87million before tax, reversing 2016’s £163m loss.
