Ellisons announce senior promotions

The Board of Ellisons is delighted to confirm that from 1st September Matthew Champney will be promoted to the role of Chief Executive Officer within the business and Lee Farmer will be promoted to a newly created Chief Operating Officer position.

Matthew and Lee have been with Ellisons for a combined total of nearly 50 years, amassing significant business and industry experience, and in 2024 were part of the team that completed a management buy-out of the business.

Prior to these promotions, Matthew held the role of Commercial Director while Lee was Operations Director. Commenting on the promotions, Chair of Ellisons, Paul Faulkner, said:

“Taking place one year on from the management buy out at Ellisons, these promotions reflect the leadership roles that both Matt and Lee have taken up in the organisation and are extremely well deserved.

Ellisons has ambitious plans for future growth and development within the professional beauty sector, and this is an important step in enabling the business to achieve these goals.”

Matthew Champney added:

“After 25 years with Ellisons, I am delighted to be appointed CEO. I look forward to building on our strong foundations, supporting the continued growth of our talented team, and raising the profile of Ellisons within the industry. Lee and I would like to express our thanks to all who have supported us throughout our journey at Ellisons so far.”
