Stepping into the role with immediate effect and reporting directly to CEO Justin Hampshire, Ambrose will “oversee all aspects of the group’s product and brands, from strategy and planning through to execution”. She’ll be responsible for “ensuring brand consistency and driving product development” across the three Hobbs, Whistles and Phase Eight operations.
