The AIM-traded firm, which operates the Bargain Booze and Wine Rack brands, said Robinson joined the group on 1 July having worked in the retail sector for over 20 years, holding senior positions with a range of large organisations.
His retail career started at Dixons Stores Group where he held roles within commercial and product marketing before joining Homebase as a category manager.
In 2003 he moved to Argos, the board said, and worked in a number of marketing and commercial roles before joining the Homebase executive board as commercial director in 2009.
Robinson joined the Argos Executive Board as Commercial Director in 2011 and was most recently Argos' chief operating officer.
“I am delighted to welcome David to our board as managing director of Conviviality Retail,” said chairman David Adams.
“During his time with Argos, David was instrumental in the implementation of its strategic, operational and financial transformational plan and we look forward to benefiting from his significant retail experience."
