Shopping centre operator Capital & Regional has a new general manager for its Walthamstow, north London, mall. Liz Hardy joins with a strong retail CV that includes managerial roles at central London stores Debenhams, Hobbs, Monsoon Accessorize and All Saints across a 15-year career.

She's joined The Walthamstow Mall, “bringing extensive retail experience… in results-driven management and commercial strategy”, C&R said.

Her previous position was commercial manager for LLAOL, the London Luton Airport operator. There she was responsible for commercial performance and account management of 68 business partners across the airport estate, operations and commercially led marketing campaigns. 

Sara Jennings, director of Guest & Customer Experience, Capital & Regional, said: “While running operations, Liz will also provide vision and leadership as we progress our wider plans to repurpose the centre. Liz is commercially minded with a strong-track record of delivering results, as well as successful stakeholder engagement campaigns, making her a great fit for the role”.
 
Hardy added: “In the coming months, I hope to contribute some of my own experience to the centre’s rejuvenation, and to delivering long-term value for the area, in close partnership with the local authority, community groups, and all of our retail customers”.
