Officers
4
Two of the 4 officer records shown for GLENCORE PLC are current appointments, filed with Companies House. John King (appointed 2001-09-19) serves as Director; Glynis Thomson (appointed 2001-09-19) serves as Company Secretary. The remaining 2 records shown (Ashcroft Cameron Nominees Limited and Ashcroft Cameron Secretaries Limited) are former appointments that have since been resigned.
Management authority at GLENCORE PLC sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control.
The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.
Group Structure
GLENCORE PLC has no recorded parent company — it sits at the top of its own group structure, with 14 subsidiaries recorded beneath it across 9 jurisdictions. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.
Those 14 subsidiaries span United Kingdom, South Africa, Switzerland, Canada, Australia, Cayman Islands, and 3 more jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. Four of the 14 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
