Temple&WebsterOnline furniture retailer, Temple & Webster, has appointed its current interim CEO, Mark Coulter, as CEO, and the current interim CFO, Mark Tayler, as CFO, both effective immediately.

Coulter is an original co-founder, having re-joined the company as chief operating officer in March 2016 to lead the development of its Revised Business Plan.

Carol Schwartz, company chair, said the company is pleased Coulter has accepted the role of CEO “after doing a great job over the last six months in implementing the Revised Business Plan”.

“Mark’s extensive digital and commercial experience, combined with Mark’s intimate understanding of the business as one of its founders, strongly positions the company in continuing the implementation of its vision and strategy,” Schwartz said.

“It is also great that Mark Tayler has accepted the role of CFO, having done an excellent job as interim CFO,” she added.

Coulter said he is excited by the opportunity to continue the company’s growth momentum through executing their strategy of delivering solutions for their customers.

“Our clear objective is to deliver improved operational and financial performance through leveraging our scale, unique brands and market leading position. Re-joining a company that I love, in a growing and exciting market, with the most passionate and talented team I have ever worked with was not a hard decision,” he said.
