Jeevan Kirar, a former Carpetright finance director, has been managing director of the retailer since August last year.<\/p>\n

Martin Harris, the carpet chain\u2019s founder, currently serves as vice chair of the company.<\/p>\n

Harris, the son of Carpetright founder Lord Harris and ex-director at the firm, set up rival Tapi in 2015, a year after his father sold his chain.<\/p>\n
