Achilles Corporation ( (JP:5142) ) has shared an announcement.

Achilles Corporation announced planned changes to its board and executive structure, including the appointment of industry veteran Haruko Kokue as a new external director, adding extensive experience in chemicals, CSR, and corporate communications from Mitsui Chemicals and several major listed companies. The company also realigned responsibilities among existing directors overseeing sales and production to sharpen focus on key business units, while nominating attorney Reiko Shiratori as an external director and Audit & Supervisory Committee member, and promoting Yumiko Saito to operating officer in charge of overseas business governance and financial accounting, signaling an emphasis on governance, oversight, and international operations.

Two current Audit & Supervisory Committee members, Shigeru Yamada and Masako Suto, will retire, marking a rotation in the company’s audit and supervisory lineup and refreshing its oversight framework. The restructuring, which remains subject to shareholder approval in June, suggests Achilles is strengthening its governance and control systems and better aligning executive roles with its core segments in automotive, industrial, and construction-related materials to support future business execution.
