Myer has confirmed the election of Terrence McCartney as a non-executive director.
McCartney is a non-executive director of Solomon Lew's Premier Investments and its wholly owned subsidiary, Just Group.
Lew, who has a 20% stake in Myer, nominated McCartney for election following years of pressure on Myer's board over its performance.
Myer CEO John King said the department store is well positioned for the Christmas season.
“We have commenced FY23 strongly, with our record sales result for the first 13 weeks up 52.8 percent on last year and 18.9 percent on pre-Covid levels, demonstrating good momentum with our customer.”
