UK electronics, domestic appliance and household furniture retailer BrightHouse has appointed a new head of business change and IT.

Simon Mouncer has been handed the role with the main responsibility of overseeing the business change programme BrightHouse is currently undergoing.

One of the major elements of the programme to be implemented this year will be an upgrade of the retailer's main point-of-sale technology.

He will report to the company's finance director, Giles David.

David said in a statement: "Simon's impressive track record in finance and IT has contributed significantly to our financial performance during the past year. His experience and focus will be invaluable in driving successful business change and development, the foundation for the company's continued pursuit of growth."

Mouncer was previously head of commercial finance where he was in charge of corporate financial planning. Prior to joining BrightHouse, he was head of finance for the business change programme at Marks and Spencer.
