Luxury retailer Watches of Switzerland Group has revealed the appointment of a new chief financial officer.
Bill Floydd will join the Leicester-headquartered company from The Rank Group, the FTSE 250 international gaming, leisure, and entertainment group, where he has held the role of chief financial officer since November 2018.
Prior to his role at Rank, Floydd was CFO at Experian’s UK and Ireland region for more than five years.
He will succeed Anders Romberg, who has informed the board of his intention to retire from the group after seven years in the role.
Chief executive Brian Duffy said: “Bill brings a wealth of senior financial expertise and leadership qualities, and the group will benefit greatly from his experience.
“On behalf of the board, I would like to thank Anders for the significant contribution he has made to the business as our CFO since 2014, including to our successful IPO in 2019 and subsequent growth as a listed company.
“Personally, I would like to add that Anders has been a strong partner to me and has played a key leadership role in the transformation of our business. Anders leaves the group in a strong financial position and we wish him all the very best for the future.”
Floydd added that he is looking “forward to working closely with Brian, the board and the wider team in continuing to deliver on the group’s strategy”.
