Marks & Spencer IT and property directors to leave this summer
Marks & Spencer has confirmed that its director of IT Darrell Stein and director of property Clem Constantine are to leave the business in the summer.
The news follows a number of senior departures from the retailer during the last year. This includes head of womenswear Neil Hendy who earlier this month was hired as Coast’s creative director by Coast chief executive and former Marks & Spencer head of clothing Kate Bostock.
A Marks & Spencer spokesperson told the Financial Times: “We can confirm that Darrell Stein, director of IT, and Clem Constantine, director of property, will be leaving the business in the summer. Their roles have significantly changed recently; Darrell developed our new e-commerce platform which has now been delivered and, as announced at our interims, we will be putting on less GM space which changes our property focus.
“Both Darrell and Clem have done a great job and we wish them well going forward. We have a very strong talent pool at M&S that is being recognised internally and externally.”
