In her new position, she will continue to lead global talent strategy, culture initiatives and HR operations.

Meanwhile, Meekings joined in November 2024 as global director of transformation. He has more than 10 years of experience in business transformation and technology, including leadership roles at Selfridges and Tesco, as well as consultancy work with Charlotte Tilbury Beauty and EY.

AllSaints stated that the promotions apply across the wider group, which includes AllSaints and John Varvatos.

Pete Wood, chief executive of AllSaints, said: “I’m delighted to have Alex and Alfie in these new leadership roles.
