TGI Fridays has appointed Steph Williams as its new people and culture director.
Williams will join the American-inspired chain from B&M Retail, where she spent 11 years as head of human resources. Previously she worked in a number of roles for Peninsula Business Services.
Earlier this year, the brand also announced the appointment of Richard Latham as chief operating officer, after he joined TGI Fridays in 2022 as regional director for the North West.
Commenting on her appointment, Williams said,“I’m delighted to be joining TGI Fridays at what is such an exciting time for the business.
”I look forward to setting out our strategy for further growing, developing, and engaging talent within the business, to make TGI Fridays the very best place to work.
”Together we can ensure that TGI Fridays continues to be not only a fun place for our guests, but for our dedicated team members too.”
Julie McEwan, CEO, TGI Fridays, said, ” ”With Steph’s experience and background, we have no doubt that in partnership with the wider leadership team, she will excel and help bring the business and our people to even greater heights.
”We want TGI Fridays to be the best place to work, supporting our teams to deliver a first class experience for our guests.”
