Speakers

Louise has enjoyed a long and varied career in retail with a wide range of businesses from small startups to well-known large retailers in the UK and across Europe. 

Louise joined TJX in 2010 as a Managing Director.  In 2015 she took on the role of President of TJX Europe.  Under her leadership she grew the division across six markets in Europe and launched a successful online business in the United Kingdom. 

In 2022 she took on the international role of SEVP, Group President, leading the business in Europe, Australia, as well as the TJX global buying offices.

She is a constant student and driver of inclusive leadership, deeply committed to development for all and an active champion of culture.  In 2023 Louise was recognised for her inclusive leadership by being named ‘Woman of the Year’ at The World Retail Congress in Barcelona.

Her passion for people is reflected in her deeply held support for the Company's longstanding charitable and community partnerships, such as The Prince’s Trust, Cancer Research UK, Comic Relief’s Red Nose Day as well as other partnerships across Europe. 

In May 2025, Louise will be moving on from her SEVP role at TJX Companies to spend more time with family and focus on other projects. She will continue to support TJX in an I&D advisory role.
