Very Group drafts in former Walmart director as chief executive
Online retailer Very Group has appointed an ex-Walmart executive to become chief executive as Henry Birch stands down after four and a half years in charge.
Very has recruited Lionel DesclĂ©e as Birchâs successor. DesclĂ©e, who was president and chief executive of Walmartâs Japanese business for three years, joins the retailer from McKinsey & Company, where he is a senior advisor, and will take over from Birch in September.
