Fulfilling Langmead’s former group role of vice chairman is David Longfellow, owner of Leeds-based JL Brooks.
Commenting on the appointments, NBC’s managing director David Lunt said: “We must first say a big thank you to Stuart Lane, our inaugural chairman. His leadership has proved to be invaluable in our first year and during extremely difficult trading conditions caused by the pandemic.
