Coffee Republic has selected James Muirhead to be its new FD.

The AIM-quoted company said that Muirhead would be appointed as finance director with effect from 21 September, and that it expected he would be admitted to the board by Christmas 2007.

Muirhead qualified as a chartered accountant with PricewaterhouseCoopers in 1998 and has worked with a number of high profile companies, including Novus Leisure, the operator of the Tiger Tiger nightclub brand, and Esporta, operator of the Health Club chain.

Coffee Republic's chief exec Steven Bartlett said: 'I am delighted that James has decided to join Coffee Republic and look forward to the experience he can bring us from his time working in high-growth, multi-site, branded businesses. He is joining at an exciting and challenging time in the company's history and I wish him luck in this time with us.'
