Marks & Spencer has hired former Topshop Topman managing director Mitch Hughes as director of menswear.
He was previously managing director of Dorothy Perkins, Burton and Wallis following the Arcadia brands’ acquisition out of administration by Boohoo.
Prior to that, he held the same role at Topshop Topman and has also previously worked as a buying director at Burton and Matalan.
At M&S, he will succeed director of menswear and kidswear Wes Taylor who will retire this month. Hughes previously worked with the retailer from 1997 to 2005 as a buyer.
