Ms Morphet said “Matthew has been promoted from his role as Workwear’s Head of Strategy, Human Resources and International.  Matthew has been well prepared for his elevation to the role as Group General Manager of the Workwear Group; he is well versed in the opportunities and challenges facing the sector and will be leading an experienced management team. 

While we are disappointed to lose Holly, her appointment to the top job at our customer, Best & Less, is recognition of her strengths and experience. We wish her the very best in her new role.”
