Retail
The Retail Interim Practice works very closely with colleagues in our executive search businesses, with coverage across all areas of the industry.
The Practice covers UK and international retailing activity; our clients include traditional store multiples and department stores, multi-channel operations, on-line retailers, mail order and TV shopping channels. We are experienced at placing executives and senior management across the full range of retail functional disciplines.
