Gavin Sargent

Chair of Operations Sub-Committee

Born and educated in Norwich, my working life has been spent in media, manufacturing, wholesaling and logistics, with much of that time spent in the textile industry.

I began in junior management with a fabric manufacturer in Nottingham, working with yarn suppliers, internal stakeholders, sub-contracted dyehouses and ultimately our entire customer base. This gave me suitable experience to lead me into supply chain production and demand management roles with a variety of lingerie own-label manufacturers and brands. My final career position before returning to my homeland was as Operations Director at Panache Lingerie in Sheffield.

I am a season ticket holder at Carrow Road and continue to watch my golf handicap head in the wrong direction every year.
