Carillion finance chief ‘dumped’ shares at first opportunity
Former Carillion finance director Richard Adam

THE FORMER finance director of collapsed outsourcing giant Carillion has been blasted for “dumping” the last of his shares in the failing company as soon as possible.

Richard Adam flogged off £534,000 in shares – his entire shareholding – on March 1 last year after retiring in December 2016, according to new information published today by the work and pensions and business select committees.

He then sold his long-term incentive plan awards from 2014 for £242,000 on May 8 2017.
