Jigsaw hires new Retail Director from Russell & Bromley

Jigsaw has appointed Lisa Butler as Retail Director following her short stint at Russell & Bromley, which was recently snapped up by NEXT after falling into administration.

Butler joined Russell & Bromley as Global Retail Director in September 2025 and, prior to that, held the same role at Trinny London for six and a half years. Before that, she was a Regional Manager at Space NK.

In a recent LinkedIn post, Butler said: "Last September I joined the British heritage brand Russell & Bromley as part of an exciting five-year reboot strategy. With so much opportunity across the business and the chance to shape the retail strategy with real autonomy, I was incredibly excited to join such a passionate and loyal community of people.

“During my time there, I had the privilege of working alongside some truly dedicated and talented individuals. Together, we delivered a strong Q4 and there was a real sense of momentum and belief in what the business could achieve.

“However, as many will know, the business entered administration earlier this year, which brought my time with Russell & Bromley to an earlier close than expected. While this chapter was short, it was a meaningful one, and I am grateful for the relationships built and the experiences gained during that time.

“Every chapter in our careers shapes the next, and I’m delighted that this one has led me to a new opportunity.

“I’m very proud to share that I have joined Jigsaw as their new Retail Director. I’m hugely excited to begin this next chapter with Jigsaw, working with the talented teams across stores and head office while contributing to the continued strength and future of this iconic British brand.”
