Philip Lay to leave Brains

SA Brain has announced that retail director Philip Lay is to leave the business at the end of March, after 12 years with the company.

“It is early days and I am looking forward to a break and maybe some skiing, but after that I am hoping to do something back in the sector and there are a number of opportunities out there that are of interest,” he said.

The group is currently undergoing a restructure and Lay’s responsibilities will be handed over to relevant colleagues in the interim.

Lay said: “I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with Brains, working with a fantastic team of people, developing some exciting businesses and seeing the team achieve some great results.”

Chief executive Scott Waddington said: “I would like to thank Philip for all his support, hard work and valuable contribution to the business.”
