Monks said: “Mamas & Papas is a brand people have a real connection with, and I loved the idea of being part of what comes next.

“I’m looking forward to getting to know the team and helping the brand feel even more relevant to today’s parents. As a mum myself, it’s a world I care about personally too.”

Meanwhile, Hodgson was previously retail finance and group data director at Pets at Home and held senior finance, transformation and commercial leadership roles at Amazon, Morrisons and Asda. Before that, she spent ten years at KPMG working in corporate and project finance.

“With an exciting 2027 and beyond ahead, their appointments add further strength and capability as we build the next chapter of Mamas & Papas and realise the significant opportunity ahead of us.”
