Etailer Amara has recruited Matthew Butlin to the new role of chief technology officer.
Butlin has spent his career heading up the technology functions of high growth fresh food companies, most recently spending almost six years at BerryWorld as cto.
‘Amara is already a progressive retailer in the digital arena, and I am looking forward to building on this by supporting all technological areas to take the brand to the next stage of growth. I’m very pleased to be joining such a dynamic and creative team,’ says Butlin.
‘I am delighted to welcome Matthew to Amara. The role of cto is the final position we needed to fill and to maintain the high double-digit growth we are still experiencing. Matthew brings comprehensive knowledge and experience and will undoubtedly shape our technology strategy over the coming years,’ says Andrew Hood, Amara ceo and co-founder.
Last month the retailer recruited Mark Higgins as chief operations officer.
