She replaces Murray Lambell, who held the post since 2020. He too has been promoted, becoming global general manager of home, garden and refurbished categories at the platform. Lambell will be based at eBay’s European headquarters in Bern, Switzerland.
Since joining eBay in December 2020, Williams has overseen eBay’s partnerships with massively popular TV series Love Island, as well as last year’s ‘The eBay Way’ marketing campaign.
Williams joined Ebay from ASOS, where she was global brand director for seven years, overseeing marketing and customer programmes, creative strategy, content planning, consumer comms and social media output.
