Board Changes
TheWorks.co.uk plc, the multi-channel value retailer of arts, crafts, toys, books and stationery, announces the following board changes.
Following seven years' involvement with The Works,
The Works is delighted to announce that
"It has been a privilege to chair The Works since 2014, during which time the business has undergone a significant transformation. I am very proud of the important milestones reached, such as the IPO and opening our 500th store, but more importantly I am pleased with the journey The Works has been on more recently to make it a more agile and modern version of the business that our customers have always known and loved. The leadership team has already proven itself capable of guiding the business through the toughest of storms and despite the challenges posed by the pandemic The Works has emerged as a stronger business. I remain fully supportive of the business and its leadership and am sincerely grateful to my colleagues for their support, their continuing hard work and their 'can-do' spirit."
"The Works is a true champion of the high street and has grown to become a successful multi-channel retailer. With its refocused strategy, highly capable leadership team and a workforce of over 3,500 dedicated and passionate colleagues I have no doubt that The Works will continue to go from strength to strength. I am delighted to have been appointed Chair and look forward to working with the rest of the Board and supporting the business through the next stage of its growth."
