The Body Shop global retail director Linda Campbell has stepped down from the health and beauty retailer, according to Retail Week.
She is understood to have left the ethical beauty specialist at the end of November, despite taking up the position at the start of the year.
Campbell joined The Body Shop in 2014 as retail director and was later promoted to UK and Ireland managing director in 2017.
Prior to that, she spent four years at Planet Organic as its commercial director and held multiple roles during an eight year stint at Space NK.
It comes as The Body Shop is attempting to boost its performance, with sales plummeting since the onset of the pandemic as group revenue declined 8.6% in the second quarter to 30 June.
Natura and Co group chief executive, Fabio Barbosa, had said: “Though we expect our businesses’ revenues to trend better in the second half of the year, we believe the challenges in the macro environment will persist and our margins will remain pressured in the short term.”
