SPAR UK Ltd is delighted to announce the appointment of Philippe Rondepierre as its new Head of Marketing.

Debbie Robinson said: “I am delighted that Philippe is coming to join us, bringing with him his wealth of expertise in marketing, sales and the SPAR business.
“I have every confidence that SPAR will benefit hugely from his presence on our team, and that Philippe will be instrumental in helping us continue to develop our professional marketing.”
Philippe Rondepierre said: “I am very happy to be taking this exciting opportunity to progress my career with SPAR UK. This is a fantastic chance for me to make the most of the knowledge and experience I have gained with C J Lang and test my skills on an even larger scale.”
Scott Malcolm, C J Lang and Son Limited Managing Director, added: “Philippe is a loyal and committed member of the senior management team of C J Lang and we are sad to lose him but his association with SPAR continues to both our advantages.
“I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Philippe and thank him for his commitment to the company over the years. We wish him all the best in his new position with SPAR UK.”
