Thanking Hart for his service Paul Wilkinson, chairman of Thorntons, said: "Over the past four years Jonathan has turned around our Retail business, as well as creating and delivering the vision and strategy that will serve as the platform for the continued transformation of Thorntons into an international consumer goods business.
