He will head up the finance side of the Leicestershire-headquartered business which includes the Goldsmiths, Watches of Switzerland and Mappin and Webb chains, as well as Mayors in the United States. He joined the board on January 1, replacing Anders Romberg who has retired after seven years in the role.
When the appointment was announced last year chief executive Brian Duffy said he was looking forward to working with the new CFO. He said: “He brings a wealth of senior financial expertise and leadership qualities, and the group will benefit greatly from his experience.
“On behalf of the board, I would like to thank Anders for the significant contribution he has made to the business as our CFO since 2014, including to our successful IPO in 2019 and subsequent growth as a listed company. Personally, I would like to add that Anders has been a strong partner to me and has played a key leadership role in the transformation of our business.”
