The Board of Directors proposes two new board members, Ms. Isabelle Parize and Sir John Peace, while all current board members stand for re-election. The election of board members takes place at the Annual General Meeting on 13 March 2019.

Ms. Isabelle Parize and Sir John Peace will act as advisors to the Board as of 1 January 2019.

Peder Tuborgh, Chairman of the Board of Directors says: “Over the last few quarters, the Board has searched intensely for new board members to complement and strengthen the Board. Isabelle Parize and Sir John Peace bring great expertise and management experience from luxury retail and global consumer facing companies. I am convinced that their presence on the Board will be of high value for PANDORA and its shareholders.”

Furthermore, he has strong competences within general and financial management.

Sir John Peace says: “PANDORA is the most well-known jewellery brand in the world, and I look forward to be part of the transition that takes the company forward.
