(Sharecast News) - Soft drinks maker Nichols announced the appointment of David Taylor as its interim chief financial officer on Wednesday.

The AIM-traded firm said Taylor's most recent role was as CFO of Churchill China, where he served for more than 30 years.

During his tenure there, he played a key role in the company's success and growth, leading it through a successful initial public offering in London in 1994.

Taylor is a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales.

While he assumed the role of interim CFO, Nichols said it was actively engaged in the selection process for a permanent group CFO.

"I am delighted to welcome David to the Nichols board on an interim basis and look forward to working with him," said non-executive chair Liz McMeikan.

"David brings significant and relevant experience to the organisation while the board looks for a permanent group CFO."

At 1326 BST, shares in Nichols were down 0.47% at 1,065p.
