I'd have thought it would easily cover that - the CFO is the second highest job after the CEO, which will have a huge salary at Sky.
This article suggests he was paid c.£9m (admittedly including shares) for the 2015 salary year:
He was the Sky CFO from 2008 -> 2018. He must be loaded. I've no idea why anyone would think that it's appropriate for someone of that level of wealth to be an MP

No one seems to bat an eyelid round here that our previous sitting mp upped sticks and moved the midlands and this guy was parachuted into one of the safest seats in the country.

Am I the outlier here for wanting highly skilled people, with experience of running large complex businesses/entities to be at the higher end of government? Parachuting in and no connection to local area probably means, yes might be a shite local mp. But when it comes to ministers I don’t really want people making it up as a they go along, with no clue what they’re doing or how to do it (although aware that ministers aren’t running things day to day).
No idea regarding the competency of Andrew Griffith, but if a CXO of some major business/company wants to take a massive pay cut and attempt to make things better for the country (rather than use it to further line their own pockets) is that that terrible?
