CJ Lang has recruited Robin Thomson to bolster its company-owned stores estate as Area Manager for the Dundee, Angus, Falkirk and Grangemouth areas.
Thomson latterly was a Regional Business Manager with Scotmid and prior to that was an Area Manager for Botterills Convenience Stores.
Brian Straiton, Company-owned Stores Operations Director at CJ Lang, said: “It’s great to have secured the appointment of Robin. He brings a wealth of experience, knowledge and leadership with over 30 years in the convenience retail trade. This is a great addition to the team. It strengthens our team and Robin joins us at a very exciting time as the business continues to move forward with renewed energy and pace. Our company-owned stores estate has been working on a back to basics initiative, whilst renewing our retail operations across our own retail estate.”
Thomson added: “I’m delighted to have joined the business. I have previously worked alongside the CJ Lang business, being a part of Spar Scotland when I was Area Manager with Botterills Convenience Stores. I’m looking forward to returning to convenience retailing with CJ Lang.
“This is a very exciting time and the business has made many changes in the last 18 months. I’m delighted to be part of the team taking the business forward.”
