Prior to Affinity, Haslett held senior executive roles at Northumbrian Water and United Utilities, where he led large-scale water and wastewater operations, overseeing "multi-billion-pound asset portfolios and complex capital programmes".

Chairman David Sproul said: "I am delighted that Keith Haslett will be joining Pennon as our next Chief Executive Officer following a rigorous search process. Keith is a seasoned leader in the UK water sector, bringing over 25 years of experience across regulated utilities, with a strong track record of driving operational excellence, delivering complex capital programmes, and increasing shareholder value."
