Joining Jollyes’ as its new chief marketing officer is Sean McGinty taking direct responsibility for customer, marketing and Jollyes’ digital and loyalty proposition.

Sean joined the business in October after three years as marketing director at Dunelm and prior to that, four years as marketing director of Aldi UK.  

Sean has also held senior marketing roles at Debenhams and Asda in a retail career stretching over 25 years.

In May, David Stokes will join as retail and supply chain director, taking direct responsibility for functions led by Adam Dury who was promoted to chief executive designate in October 2025.

David will join Jollyes after six years at Gregory Group, a leading third-party logistics provider based in the South West of England.

Announcing the appointments, chief executive designate Adam Dury said: “It’s no secret that Jollyes is growing at a significant pace as we open new stores right across the UK.

“Those growth ambitions will be fuelled by talented retailers and that’s why I’m delighted to welcome Sean and David to our leadership team as we bring our unique combination of low prices and pet expertise to more customers.

“David’s hands-on retail leadership and supply chain expertise and Sean’s retail marketing experience will be real assets to the business as we continue to shake up the UK pet retail market.”
