IN THE MONEY: Just Eat Takeaway boss Jitse Groen sees pay jump by more than half as sales soar
The boss of Just Eat Takeaway saw his pay for the past year jump by more than half as sales rocketed.
Billionaire Jitse Groen, 42, was handed £970,000 for the year to December, a 57.9 per cent increase on his £617,000 remuneration for 2019.
The rise came after Just Eat completed its £6.2billion merger with European delivery rival Takeaway at the start of 2020.
Last week, the group reported earnings of £219million for 2020. It said UK orders jumped 35 per cent over the year.
