LBG Media plc has submitted its Schedule One documentation to the London Stock Exchange.

This also confirms previous reports that Boohoo’s Carol Kane will be a Non-Executive Director of the operation.

Dave Wilson has been listed as Non-Executive Chairman, while co-founders, Alexander Solomou and Arian Kalantari are CEO and CEO respectively.

Tim Croston becomes Chief Financial Officer and joining Kane as non-executive directors are Richard Flint and Alex Jarvis.
