Sonja Balodis, who is currently Managing Director of the Comma brand, is leaving the S. Oliver Group.
Balodis and the Rottendorf-based clothing supplier are going their separate ways at the end of the year, the S. Oliver Group announced on Friday. She is leaving Comma “to pursue new professional challenges.”
Balodis has been in charge of the brand since May. Previously, she worked as Chief Product Officer of the S.Oliver Group for around one and a half years. Before that, she was Managing Director at the Bodelshausen clothing group Marc Cain. It is not the first time that Balodis has said goodbye to Comma. Before Marc Cain, she had been in the executive chair of the womenswear brand for more than 13 years.
“I am grateful for the wonderful time and the many valuable experiences I was able to gain here. It was a pleasure to work with so many talented and committed people,” said Balodis. “I’m looking forward to the new challenges that lie ahead of me and will always have fond memories of my time here.”
Restructuring at Comma
The S. Oliver Group is now reorganizing the Comma team. Linus Holzmann is to take over the management as Brand Director and continue to pursue the “chosen course with the team”, according to Rottendorf. In his position he is responsible for marketing, sales and product.
According to his own information on the career network Linkedin, Holzmann came to the S. Oliver Group as a trainee at the end of 2017 and, after completing a dual course of study, worked in various positions within the group.
