Fashion retailer Primark – which trades as Penneys here – has today named Lucy Slinger as its chief financial office, strengthening its leadership team ahead of its split from Associated British Foods.
Slinger joins Primark from IKEA franchisee Ingka Group, where she has served as deputy CFO.
Prior to Ingka Group, she spent over two decades at Shell in a range of senior finance leadership roles.
Slinger’s appointment follows that of Eoin Tonge as Primark chief executive and Filip Ekvall as chief commercial officer in March.
AB Foods said in April it would spin off Primark from its food businesses, telling investors that it will be better positioned to grow on its own.
