Pizza Express has named a new global property director tasked with leading expansion of the chain.
Clive Bentley will join the company on 1 November. He was most recently property director for Holland & Barrett, and before that global property and commercial director at Costa, the coffee shop chain.
Pizza Express chief executive David Campbell said: “On the back of our recent refinancing, we have already announced 50 new restaurant openings and 300 refurbishments, and together with the already strong property team Clive’s arrival bodes for an exciting few years ahead as we continue to build the Pizza Express brand.”
