Former Tesco boss Dave Lewis has been appointed as chief executive of Diageo as the Guinness and Johnnie Walker drinks giant looks to boost its flagging performance.
Lewis will take on the role on January 1, replacing Nik Jhangiani – the group’s previous chief financial officer – who has been acting as interim chief executive since Debra Crew resigned abruptly in July.
