Games Workshop names Elizabeth Harrison as group finance director

Miniature wargames manufacturer Games Workshop Group revealed on Wednesday that Elizabeth Harrison had been nominated to join its board as group finance director at its annual general meeting in September.

Harrison joined Games Workshop in March 2000 as a finance manager for its German sales business and has held various finance and business analysis roles within the company, and has been group reporting manager since February 2013.

Her appointment comes after Rachel Tongue said she would not propose to offer herself for re-election and will step down from the board at the AGM and leave the Group in January 2025. Tongue will continue in her role as CFO until the AGM to ensure a smooth transfer of responsibilities.

As of 1025 BST, Games Workshop shares were up 0.53% at 9,801.99p.
