Top marketer leaves TK Maxx

TK Maxx has lost its top marketer Katherine Rose, who is leaving the company two months after the departure of managing director Stephanie Morgan. It is not known if Rose has a position to go to.

Rose’s associate vice-president of marketing position and that of managing director remain unfilled. She joined the American-owned retailer in July 2005 from Centura Foods, the RHM Foods-owned company, where she was marketing director.

Rose left Centura after less than a year in the role, and was replaced by former Allied Domecq marketer Mark Doorbar.

Prior to Centura Foods Rose spent two years as marketing planning director at BBC Magazines. She joined the BBC publishing arm in 2000 as a marketing director for its lifestyle magazines before taking the top job after a reorganisation.
