Clive Hayton has been appointed Finance Director for Retirement Villages Ltd, one of the UK’s leading providers and managers of retirement developments.

Clive, 48, joined the Epsom-based company in February and is responsible for overseeing the company’s entire financial operation.
Trained originally as an accountant with Deloitte Haskins and Sells in London, Clive went on to work for Coopers & Lybrand and later Pricewaterhouse Coopers. He enjoyed a spell at Direct Line in charge of finance for the accident repair centres and also ventured into the VAT recovery field in his home town of Brighton.
New finance director Clive Hayton said: “Retirement Villages has an outstanding reputation within the retirement property industry. Having been established for 25 years, it already has robust, tried and tested systems which will support its ambitious growth programme.
“My challenge will be to ensure that we continuously improve customer service and efficiency as we expand the portfolio of villages for the benefit of all our key stakeholders: residents, staff and shareholders.”
