The board of Greggs plc has announced the appointment of Tamara Rogers as an independent non-executive director with effect from 1 June 2024. On appointment, it is intended that she will join the audit, remuneration and nominations committees.

Rogers is currently the chief marketing officer of Haleon plc, the FTSE100-listed global consumer healthcare company. She has more than 30 years’ experience, across a range of commercial and marketing roles.

Rogers joined GSK in 2018, having spent almost 25 years with Unilever plc, where she held significant leadership positions, and was appointed as CMO at Haleon ahead of its demerger from GSK and listing in 2022.

Matt Davies, chair of Greggs, said, “We are delighted to announce Tamara’s appointment to our board. She brings a wealth of experience across marketing, customer insight, and digital commerce which will be of significant value as Greggs continues its journey as a multi-channel consumer business.”
