Water boss is youngest top woman

A 38-year-old BT executive is to become the youngest female FTSE 100 boss by taking over as head of water company Severn Trent.

Liv Garfield, who has described herself as a "working mum of two kids", was lured to the utility giant with a pay package worth up to £2.4 million after two-and-a-half years in charge of the telecoms giant's Openreach division, overseeing its £2.5 billion roll-out of fibre broadband.
