“Working closely with me for these past 5 years, Richard has distinguished himself as a creative partner in both the launch of new textiles collections, and the introduction of new furniture items," said Sally Sirkin Lewis, founder and president. "His business acumen and his appreciation of the J. Robert Scott aesthetic give me great confidence and security in his leadership.” 

Chilcott joined the company in 2009 as chief operating officer. Since then, he has made a great impact on the success of the day-to-day operations as well as initiating programs which will ensure the company’s profitability in the years to come. In addition, Chilcott has played a critical role in the development of new partnerships, and strengthened the company’s relationships with key representatives.

“I am excited by the opportunities that lay ahead as we continue to bring inspired new designs to market while never forgetting the brand’s heritage and our artistic values,” Chilcott said.
