Debenhams has appointed JD Sports veteran Daniel Finley as CEO.
“After an incredible decade as Group Multi Channel Director at JD Sports Fashion plc, I decided it was time to take up a new challenge,” Finley said on LinkedIn. “Today, I am excited to have started my new role as chief executive of Debenhams following its acquisition last year by Boohoo Group. I am delighted to take charge of a great British heritage brand and looking forward to building on the progress that the team has made since its acquisition.”
Prior to joining JD Sports, Finley worked briefly as group business development director at The Peacock Group, and before that he spent six years as an associate director at Javelin Group.
