Harris, who has been serving as interim CEO since 30 January 2026, joined the board as chief financial officer in May 2022. Rank said he has "extensive knowledge of the business, a track record of driving business performance and the strategic leadership required to maximise shareholder returns".
Prior to Rank, he held senior leadership roles in a number of consumer facing businesses, including Marks & Spencer, Foxtons and Laird.
