Greggs appoints Lynne Weedall as non-executive director
Food-to-go retailer Greggs has appointed former Selfridges HR director Lynne Weedall as a non-executive director.
Due to take up her position on 17 May 2022, she will join the retailer’s board immediately after the close of its AGM that day.
In addition to working with Selfridges, Weedall has also previously held senior HR roles at Dixons Carphone, Tesco, Whitbread and BUPA.
She is currently also a non-executive director of Dr Martens and Stagecoach, and on 3 May is due to join the board of Softcat. At Greggs, she will be appointed as chair of the remuneration committee when Helena Ganczakowski steps down from the board in 2023.
Ian Durant, chair of Greggs, said: “We are delighted that such an experienced non-executive director has accepted our invitation to join the Board. Lynne brings with her extensive experience of HR and transformational change, and will add significant value to our board during this transitional phase and beyond.”
