Third boss in two years for Ikea UK

Ikea has appointed the third head of its UK and Ireland business in under two years.

Peter Jelkeby will take over as country retail manager for Ikea UK and Ireland, replacing Javier Quinones who was recently promoted to the same job at Ikea USA. The change in leadership comes just a year after Quinones took up the role of UK boss, when he succeeded Gillian Drakeford.
