Holly Oldham to rejoin Rubie’s as UK managing director

Holly will take on new role from September 24 following three years at Hasbro.

Rubie’s has today confirmed that Holly Oldham will be rejoining the company, taking on the role of UK managing director.

Holly (pictured) will begin her new role on September 24.

The move follows three years at Hasbro, where Holly was most recently UK and regional toy and game director.

Commenting on her move back to Rubie’s, where she had spent nine years prior to her move to Hasbro, Holly said: “These three years at Hasbro have been a fantastic experience, working with great brands and a great team. I have learnt so much and hope that I have been able to contribute to our success over that time.

“The opportunity to rejoin Rubie’s in this new and exciting position is something I felt I couldn’t turn down, knowing the company, the people and the industry as well as I do.

“I hope to bring all that I have learnt and aim to drive similar success at Rubie’s over the coming years.”

Holly will report to Chris Isitt, vp for EMEA and Australia. Chris added: “We’re absolutely thrilled to have Holly back and taking on this key role in fashioning the future of Rubie’s in the UK.

“A lot has changed in the three years since she was last here, but her experience at Hasbro will be a huge asset to Rubie’s as we move forward to face new challenges.”
