John Lewis boss Dame Sharon White will ‘step down next year’ – making her the shortest-serving chair in the partnership’s 100-year history.
Sharon White, chair of British retailer John Lewis Partnership, plans to step down at the end of her five-year term next year, the BBC reports.
White is said to have told the board of John Lewis, the country’s biggest department store chain, which also operates Waitrose supermarkets, that she will not seek a second term.
This would make him the shortest-serving chair in the partnership’s 100-year history.
The company, which is owned by its employees, said last month that its turnaround would take two years longer than planned and cost more money after reporting another loss for the most recent six months.
MailOnline has contacted John Lewis for comment.
