Next PLC said Chief Financial Officer Amanda James has decided to retire after 28 years of service.
The fashion retailer on Monday said James is expected to step down from the board with effect from July 26, 2024, and leave the group on Sept. 26, 2024, following the publication of the group’s first-half earnings.
The company added that James will be replaced by Jonathan Blanchard, currently the CFO and chief operating officer of British retailer Reiss.
Blanchard will join Next in February 2024 and take over as CFO in July 2024, the company said.
“We have worked closely with Jonathan for over three years and believe that his skills are well suited to Next’s financial disciplines and its culture,” Next said.
