Jason tarry

Former Tesco UK chief executive Jason Tarry has been appointed chair of the John Lewis Partnership, succeeding Dame Sharon White.

Tarry, who recently left Tesco after more than three decades at the grocery powerhouse, will take up his new position in September.

As well as grocery, Tarry brings experience in general merchandise and fashion, which should be valuable at John Lewis, which owns supermarket business Waitrose as well as the eponymous department stores.
