New store manager Lucie Johnson-Jones joined Boots just two years ago and she is looking forward to serving the store’s customers. Lucie says: “I joined the company just over two years ago as a Christmas Customer Assistant in Westfield Stratford, I then moved to Liverpool Street Station store as Assistant Manager just under a year later where I began Store Manager training.
“This is my first appointment as a store manager and I am very excited to be opening a brand-new shop in such a fabulous location!”
