The Comptoir Group has announced the appointment of James Fisher as its new finance director.
Fisher, who joins from Wahaca, will start at Comptoir in Summer 2024 and will be appointed to the board.
He brings more than a decade of experience in senior financial roles across the consumer and hospitality sectors.
Since September 2020, he has held the role of finance director at Wahaca, and prior to that he was financial controller between 2018 and 2020.
Fisher was previously senior finance manager at BT and the group reporting manager at Inchcape.
His appointment finalises the restructure of the senior leadership team at Comptoir Group following the appointment of Travis Fish as operations director and Dominika Kurowska as people director.
Nick Ayerst, CEO of Comptoir, said: “We are excited to welcome James, Travis and Dominika to the Comptoir Group and look forward to benefiting from their experience and sector expertise. This is a key time for Comptoir with both franchise and equity restaurant openings, and we are confident that these three senior appointments will help lead the business into the next phase of growth.
“We know there is strong demand for our brand of Lebanese, Middle Eastern and North African food and we are on a mission to further grow this market serving our great food and hospitality one dish at a time.”
