Lucy Jones says farewell to the green machine Asda as she joins SAP consultancy Resulting IT

Lucy Jones has left Asda where she has spent the last eight years, joining from Tesco and most recently serving as Project Manager. She is now heading to SAP consultancy, Resulting IT.

In a LinkedIn post, she said: "After seven and a bit years at Asda, the time has come to say goodbye to the green machine. It’s been an amazing journey full of growth, learning, and a fair share of challenges along the way."

"I started out as a graduate in Gosforth, and never could have imagined all the incredible opportunities that would come my way. I’ve had the chance to work across multiple departments in Asda House, and each experience has taught me something new. One of the standout moments for me was working on the innovation store, trialling things like holograms and personalised chocolate machines, with way too many nights spent at the Holiday Inn Express in Stevenage."

She added: "I’m also incredibly proud to have been part of the Future Programme, where I helped project manage the conversion of our convenience estate. It’s been an incredible achievement to see all 799 stores now fully converted onto the new systems.”

“Along the way, I’ve made some incredible friends who I know I’ll keep for life. A massive thank you to all my colleagues, suppliers, and everyone who’s been part of my journey. Your support, teamwork, and collaboration have meant so much, and I’ve learned a lot from every single one of you."

"Now, I’m looking forward to two weeks off with a few trips away before starting off my next chapter at Resulting IT as a Delivery Manager."

2025 RTIH INNOVATION AWARDS

Physical stores will be a key focus area at the 2025 RTIH Innovation Awards.

The awards. which will open for entries in March, celebrate global tech innovation in a fast moving omnichannel world.

Our 2024 hall of fame entrants were revealed during an event which took place at RIBA’s 66 Portland Place HQ in Central London on 21st November, and consisted of a drinks reception, three course meal, and awards ceremony presided over by comedian Lucy Porter.

In his welcome speech, Scott Thompson, Founder and Editor, RTIH, said: “The event is now into its sixth year and what a journey it has been. The awards started life as an online only affair during the Covid outbreak, before launching as a small scale in real life event and growing year on year to the point where we’re now selling out this fine, historic venue.”

He added: “Congratulations to all of our finalists. Many submissions did not make it through to the final stage, and getting to this point is no mean feat. Checkout-free stores, automated supply chains, immersive experiences, on-demand delivery, next generation loyalty offerings, inclusive retail, green technology. We’ve got all the cool stuff covered this evening.”

“But just importantly we’ve got lots of great examples of companies taking innovative tech and making it usable in everyday operations - resulting in more efficiency and profitability in all areas.”

Congratulations to our 2024 winners, and a big thank you to our sponsors, judging panel, the legend that is Lucy Porter, and all those who attended November's gathering.
