Welcome to the Team Greeting Dipesh Jethwa

G&L Scientific (G&L) has announced the appointment of Dipesh Jethwa as its new Group Chief Financial Officer and Board Member.

Dipesh joins G&L at an exciting stage in our journey, bringing with him over 15 years of strategic financial leadership experience across the professional services and healthcare sectors.

A Chartered Accountant and seasoned finance leader, Dipesh’s impressive track record includes his most recent role as CFO of Phlexglobal, where he played a key role in the company’s expansion, systems transformation, and successful sale to Cencora (formerly AmerisourceBergen).

His career also includes leadership roles at PwC, Barclays Capital, and Coats Plc, along with entrepreneurial experience that brings a commercially agile mindset to the executive team.

As Group CFO, Dipesh will lead G&L’s global financial strategy, working closely with the CEO and Board to support continued growth, drive operational excellence, and ensure effective integration of future acquisitions.

Stephen Loughrey, CEO of G&L Scientific, said:

“Dipesh brings a wealth of experience in scaling high-growth businesses, managing complex financial operations, and building strong teams.

“His appointment marks an important step forward for G&L as we continue our global expansion.”

G&L’s Chair, Peter Griffin, added:

“We are delighted to welcome Dipesh to the Board.

“His experience, particularly within private equity-backed environments and M&A integration, will be invaluable as we continue to execute on our strategic vision.”

The appointment comes as Simon Keeble, G&L’s long-serving CFO, prepares for his retirement.

Simon has played a central role in G&L’s success, overseeing financial governance and contributing to the company’s transformation into a leading global scientific consultancy.

Stephen Loughrey commented:

“On behalf of the company and the Board, I want to extend our sincere thanks to Simon.

“His dedication and leadership have helped shape G&L into the organization it is today. We wish him all the best in his well-earned retirement.”

Peter Griffin concluded:

“Simon has been an outstanding CFO, a trusted partner to the Board, and a great ambassador for G&L.

“We are grateful for his contributions and wish him every happiness in the next chapter of his life.”
