Pest control maker Rentokil Initial said Wednesday that Trian partner Brian Baldwin would join the Terminix owner's board effective next week.
The company said Baldwin, who has worked at Nelson Peltz's firm since 2007, will also join the nominating and compensation committees.
The accession comes three months after Trian first disclosed a roughly $400 million position in Rentokil, and two weeks after the company issued a profit warning.
Peltz's Trian has a long history of turning around struggling businesses, largely in the consumer sector.
His company mounted a proxy fight at Disney earlier this year, failing to secure a board seat but still making around $1 billion off the investment.
