Upon joining one of the fastest-growing companies in the UK, Ms Petesic said she feels “honoured and privileged to have this opportunity to contribute to the rapid growth and evolution of the Gymshark brand.”
The new CPO will be responsible for the end-to-end product creation from design to delivery, including product engineering, product marketing, and supply chain strategy for Gymshark’s ever-expanding global proposition.
Meanwhile, within his new role as CTO, Mr Dougles will be responsible for laying the foundations of the company’s Enterprise and Digital architecture to enable Gymshark’s continued rapid, international growth.
