Sainsbury’s has hired the former boss of John Lewis to take charge of its clothing and homeware operations.
The supermarket giant said Paula Nickolds will take the role of general merchandise and clothing commercial director in June.
Ms Nickolds was ousted from department store chain John Lewis in January 2020 after 25 years, after she failed to improve the retailer’s profits.
The role will see Ms Nickolds lead Sainsbury’s general merchandise, Argos, Habitat and Tu clothing operations, taking over from Mike Luck who will leave the company in the summer after a handover period.
