Concordia Energy has announced the appointment of Guy Appleton as Chief Financial Officer.

Guy brings over 25 years of global experience in the energy industry, spanning finance, strategy, M&A, capital markets and investor relations. But more than that, he brings a track record of building and shaping high-performing, non-operated businesses from the ground up.

At Paladin Resources, Guy was part of the small, entrepreneurial team that took the company from a 12-person start-up with a £70 million market cap to a FTSE 250 success story worth £1.2 billion at its sale to Talisman Energy. From structuring transactions and financing growth to managing investor relations and capital strategy, Guy helped turn vision into scale - proof that small, smart investments can combine to create something far greater than the sum of their parts.

His later career continued that trajectory, delivering step-change growth through creative financing and disciplined execution across multiple geographies and market cycles. As Finance and Growth Director at the private equity backed Kellas Midstream, Guy helped transform a carved-out asset into a high-performing business recognised for its innovative deal-making, successful financings, and sustained financial success. Guy has a rare ability to bring structure to complexity and imagination to finance - the kind of leadership that turns good deals into generational ones.
