Former Cult Beauty Chairman Mark Quinn-Newall (co-founder Net-a-Porter) returns to the Company Board in October 2020.
“Cult Beauty’s former Chairman (2014-2018) has returned to the Company boardroom after a break of nearly two years. His appointment as non-executive director follows the recent appointments in July 2020 of both investor Carmen Busquets (Cabus) and Mark Miller (Principal Advisor, Neurotribes Holdings) as non-executive directors on the Company’s board.”
Quinn-Newall chaired the board during a sustained four year period of triple digit growth (2014-18), where as chairman he mentored key senior leadership, with a particular focus on IT and Marketing departments.
As investor majority, Quinn-Newall’s return to the board coincided with the creation of three new board committees, all chaired by Quinn-Newall – providing increased oversight of the company in the areas of Governance, Remuneration and also the formation of an Exit committee, with a company now being courted by a number of buyers. These committees comprised four non-executive directors – Mark Quinn-Newall (Chairman), Jessica DeLuca (Cult Beauty Co-Founder), Carmen Busquets (Investor), and Mark Miller (Deputy Chairman and Neurotribes Principal Advisor).
