Board Changes
Sosandar, the online women's fashion brand, is delighted to announce the appointment of Steve Dilks to the Company's Board as Chief Financial Officer with immediate effect. Steve joined Sosandar in September 2020 as Finance Director after spending 11 years with Regatta, the outdoor apparel business, latterly in the role of Finance Director.
In addition, following Steve's appointment to the Board, Mark Collingbourne, Group Finance Director, will transition to the position of Non-Executive Director with immediate effect.
Bill Murray, Non-Executive Chairman, commented:
"I am very pleased to welcome Steve to the Board of Sosandar. He hit the ground running as soon as he joined last year and, since then, his experience and expertise have added significant value to the business. As Finance Director and now as CFO, Steve provides great confidence to the Board, offers substantial commercial contributions and is proving to be a great asset to the business.
I would also like to thank Mark, who has been Group Financial Director of the Company since its IPO in 2017, on behalf of the founders and the rest of the Board for his enormous contribution over the last three and a half years."
