“We’re thrilled to welcome Tiffany to the team. She brings a rare combination of global experience and deep insights into Coles and the Australian retail media landscape,” he says. “This positions her perfectly to lead the next phase of innovation and champion stronger outcomes for our supplier partners in 2026 and beyond.

“Our vision for Coles 360 is clear. We want to set the benchmark for retail media performance in Australia. Tiffany’s leadership, combined with the momentum already in place, will be key to taking our network to the next level.”

Ms Chen joins Coles 360 at a transformative time, where the business is undergoing a series of targeted improvements, including enhanced reporting and measurement, scalable performance, and leading ad offerings.

Ms Chen says she couldn’t be more excited to join Coles 360.

“As we begin 2026, we are in a strong position to unlock new opportunities for our partners and deliver more effective ways to connect with our customers,” she says.
