Oak Furnitureland has named Grayham Dibb-Fuller as its interim chief financial officer following the resignation of Patrick Lewis. Lewis, who is the great-grandson of John Spedan Lewis, founder of the John Lewis retail chain, stepped down less than a year after his appointment in July 2024.

The company stated that Lewis's departure was due to the 'requirements becoming unsuitable due to the location.' He is not taking on another executive role but will continue in several existing non-executive board positions.
In announcing the appointment, Oak Furnitureland described Dibb-Fuller as bringing 'extensive retail and consumer experience, which will be invaluable as we continue to focus on delivering the next phase of growth.'
The change marks a key transition for the hardwood furniture retailer as it continues to navigate its growth strategy.
