However, Marston's separately announces on Tuesday that Bradley will step down from July 31, having served on the board since 2014. Marston's says Non-Executive Director Octavia Morley will step up to senior independent director. Bradley additionally is a non-executive director of B&M European Value Retail SA. At Tesco, she served as group brand director, as UK marketing director, and as chief operating officer for Tesco.com. The Works also reports on Tuesday a GBP2.8 million pretax loss for the financial year that ended May 2, narrowed from GBP18.0 million the year before.

Time Out Group PLC - London-based publisher of listings magazines and operator of food markets - Hires Chris Ohlund as executive vice chair, starting Tuesday. Ohlund was head of Digital Media at Blick Group, part of Ringier AG, and also worked at Verivox Group, a German price comparison site for energy, banking, insurance and telecom services.

----------

Cloudbreak Discovery PLC - natural resource project generator, including the Klondike copper project in the US state of Colorado - Hires Rory Kutluoglu as chief operating officer, Cam Bartsch as vice president of Exploration, and Henrik Mikkelsen as vice president of Corporate Development, all non-board positions.
