Torquil Sligo-Young

Torquil joined Young’s in 1985, becoming an executive director in 1997. During his time as a director, he was responsible for personnel, health and safety, and the group’s technological needs, and he also headed up the company’s in-house CSR team. In 2020, Torquil stepped down as an executive director and became a non-executive director. He is chairman of a charitable trust set up by William Allen Young, a founder of the business, and, due to his length of service and knowledge of Young’s, is chairman of Young’s Pension Trustees Limited, the trustee company that manages the Young & Co.’s Brewery, P.L.C. Pension Scheme. Torquil brings a calmness to his position and, being a member of the founding family, he helps the company keep in touch with family shareholders.
