Posting on LinkedIn, Dimitriu said: “After 30+years of working life, leading this Kidswear Marks and Spencer has been my career high.
“A team of 100+ they are hardworking, ambitious, creative, passionate, risk-taking and resilient.
“Most importantly, a team that does it for each other and for their customers. That’s how they deliver outstanding product they can be proud of.”
