Wingstop UK & Ireland has appointed Alistair Fraser as group finance director to oversee the chicken chain’s finance function.
He joins with more than 17 years’ experience in the food and hospitality industries. Most recently, Fraser led the finance function at BKUK, the master franchise for Burger King in the UK. He has also held senior positions at Ocado Group and Whitbread.
“I’m thrilled to be joining the Wingstop UK&I team at such an exciting moment in its growth journey,” said Fraser. ”The brand is truly market-leading, with an incredible culture and one of the most loyal fanbases in the industry.
”I look forward to leveraging my experience to help shape and deliver the strategic priorities, continued growth and long-term success across the UK and Ireland.”
Wingstop UK & Ireland CFO Paddy Bamford added: “Alistair brings an outstanding track record to the team, and his expertise and strategic insight will be invaluable as we continue to grow and bring flavour to new communities in the UK and Ireland.”
His appointment comes as Wingstop continues its rapid expansion across the UK and Ireland. Earlier this month, the business also announced the appointment of former Wagamama chief marketing and commercial officer Emma Colquhoun as chief growth officer and Dirujan Sabesan as the company’s first-ever chief brand officer.
