Senior brand leader and retail strategist Bryony Taylor-Edwards has announced she is seeking her next leadership opportunity within an aspirational retail, lifestyle, or gifting brand – with a focus on brand marketing, buying, or a hybrid strategic role.
Bryony brings a blend of creative vision and commercial rigour, having most recently served as marketing, brand & buying lead and executive board member at Yarnton Home & Garden. There, she was a central part of the team that transformed it into an award-winning, design-led retail destination, directly contributing to a successful business sale in February this year.
“I’m excited to find a new challenge with an ambitious, design-led brand that’s ready for bold thinking, commercial creativity, and meaningful customer connection”
With a background that spans luxury and premium retail, Bryony is known for her ability to craft bold brand strategies, grow loyal customer communities, and lead high-performing teams. She has delivered stand-out omnichannel campaigns, strategic partnerships, and product curation across home, gift, spa, fashion, and food.
Her commercial achievements include launching an e-commerce platform during the Covid lockdown, building a loyalty programme with more than 40,000 engaged members, and consistently securing national press coverage in titles such as ‘Tatler’ and ‘House & Garden’.
As a qualified executive coach (ILM Level 7) with a deep understanding of leadership development, Bryony combines brand-building expertise with people-first leadership. She is now looking for a senior role where she can bring her full toolkit – strategic thinking, creative direction, buying instinct, and team development – to help a values-led brand grow its impact.
Bryony said: “I’m excited to find a new challenge with an ambitious, design-led brand that’s ready for bold thinking, commercial creativity, and meaningful customer connection. Whether leading brand strategy, buying, or both, I’m passionate about shaping businesses that truly stand out.”
