After Selfridges and Value Retail, Sally Scott is joining Vente-Privée. She is taking on the newly created position of UK Director. She will be in charge of both brand and customer relations in the UK, where Vente-Privée has been present since 2009.

She will report directly to Jacques-Antoine Granjon. After Germany, it is thus the second major change for Vente-Privée, which, having pulled out of the American market, plans on strengthening its presence in Europe.

Toronto-born Sally Scott lived in London, notably working for Elle and Harper’s Bazaar, before returning to Canada in 1999 and integrating Holt Renfrew, the Canadian department store chain, where she was the marketing director.

When West Galon, which owns Holt Renfrew, acquired Selfridges, it allowed Scott, in 2005, to return to London as the marketing director. In 2011 she joined Value Retail, which specialises in the development and operation of luxury outlet shopping Villages.
