Notonthehighstreet makes chief executive appointment
Notonthehighstreet has appointed Claire Davenport as its new chief executive.
She will succeed Barrie Seidenberg who was diagnosed with brain cancer earlier this year and will now be stepping down to focus on her health.
Darren Shapland, chairman of Notonthehighstreet, said: “Barrie has led the transformation of the company over the last 15 months and has significantly increased momentum in the business. Through Barrie’s leadership, the business now has a strong foundation for growth, supported by a skilled leadership team, with experienced additions including a new CTO, CFO and CPO. The board would like to thank Barrie for her expert leadership and we wish her our heartfelt best as she focuses on her health.”
Due to join the company on 27 August, Davenport previously worked as chief executive of recipe box business Hello Fresh. Notonthehighstreet said she will be continuing Seidenberg’s work in modernising the company’s technology platform and strengthening the ecommerce foundations of the business.
