Harrods has announced that its partnerships director Guy Cheston is
stepping down at the end of March.
Cheston joined the iconic British department store 16 years ago to
establish the company’s first media sales division, which has since grown
into a partnerships team that manages commercial partnerships with leading
global luxury brands.
He is leaving to focus on new opportunities as a partnerships
consultant.
“Harrods thanks Guy for his commitment to the business and dedication to
his team over his tenure, and we wish him the very best for the future,”
the company said in a statement.
Alex Unitt, who will join Harrods from US publisher Conde Nast, will
replace Cheston.
He will start his new role on 8 April.
Unitt joined Conde Nast in 2016 as digital director before being
appointed associate commercial director, global commercial partnerships in
2017.
