Boots moves Fads boss to global role

Clive Dobbs, head of marketing at AG Stanley, the Boots division which runs the Fads home improvements chain, is leaving to join Boots Healthcare International (BHI) as marketing managing for Nurofen.

AG Stanley’s marketing and merchandise director, ZoëMorgan, is also leaving, to take up the role of marketing director at another Boots subsidiary, Halfords.

The changes follow a shake-up at Boots due to overseas expansion (MW November 15) and leave Fads short of senior staff. Fads’ managing director, Peter Roche, is also taking three months off to have an operation. BHI strategic development director Alan Bowe will replace Morgan until March.
