Sheard has experience in senior marketing roles at Merlin Entertainments, Dairy Crest and The Coca Cola Company
Noble Foods has appointed former Dairy Crest head of marketing Laura Sheard to the newly created role of marketing and innovations director.
Sheard joined the egg giant last week, five months after leaving Merlin Entertainments where she spent just over four years as its sales and marketing director in the UK and Australia, with responsibility for the marketing of attractions including Legoland Windsor, Sea Life and Madame Tussauds.
After starting her career as a Mars graduate trainee, she worked her way through the ranks in increasingly senior marketing roles at The Coca Cola Company, before moving to Dairy Crest in 2013 as Cathedral City marketing manager.
