On this episode of Talking Shop I am joined by Zipline CEO and co-founder Melissa Wong. We discuss how Melissa’s 10 years’ of frontline experience informed her approach to building a SaaS company, the recurring operational frustrations that most head offices still underestimate, and why she believes technology should be designed with the store associate as the primary user. We also explore current trends in store execution and how retailers can bridge the gap between corporate strategy and the shop floor.

Card Factory has announced the appointment of Matthias Seeger as its new chief financial officer.

He is expected to take up his new role in May 2023.

Seeger has been CFO of Ambassador Cruise Line Limited since February 2022, having previously been CFO of Costcutter Supermarkets Group from September 2015 to September 2021.

He has also held senior finance roles with Procter and Gamble, in Germany, the UK, Belgium and Switzerland, between 1991 and 2013 and has a Master’s Degree in Engineering and an MBA from the University of Texas.

The company has agreed that Kris Lee will leave on 31 January 2023, and will step down from the board.

Seeger will join the company in May 2023. Simon Comer, currently group financial controller, will be appointed as interim chief financial officer, but will not be appointed as a director.

Darcy Willson-Rymer, CEO, said: “I am delighted to announce that Matthias is joining Card Factory as our CFO. Matthias has extensive financial experience and I look forward to working with him again, confident that his expertise and values will support Card Factory’s strategic projects and significant change programme over the next few years.

“I am grateful to Kris for his tireless work over the years, including successful management of liquidity, steering the business through a series of refinancing through covid lockdowns and supporting our “Opening our new future” growth strategy. We offer Kris our very best wishes for the future.”
