The FTSE 250 company, which acts as the master franchisee of the Domino’s Pizza brand in the UK, said the board concluded Frampton was the “outstanding candidate” to lead the business after considering both internal and external applicants.
She previously served as chief operating officer for more than four years and joined Domino’s from William Hill, where she was managing director of UK retail.
Chair Ian Bull said Frampton had already demonstrated strong leadership in the interim role.
“I am delighted that Nicola has agreed to become permanent CEO of Domino's.
“Having undertaken a thorough assessment of both internal and external candidates, the board is clear that Nicola is the outstanding candidate to lead the business forward, drawing on her deep operational expertise and strong leadership attributes.
“Nicola has led Domino's extremely effectively as Interim CEO, bringing a clear strategic focus and creating strong alignment and positive momentum across our core business.
“The board is confident that under Nicola's leadership, Domino's is well-placed to execute on our strategy to grow the core business and drive shareholder returns.”
Frampton said she was “honoured” to take on the role permanently and pointed to the group’s strategic direction and growth ambitions.
“I am honoured to be appointed as CEO of Domino's, a business that I am incredibly passionate about,” she said.
“As I set out in our recent results, we have a clear strategy for sustainable growth and there is real excitement across the business about the challenges and the opportunities ahead of us.
“We have an exceptional brand, a strong market position and a best-in-class leadership team.
“I look forward to working with the whole Domino's team, as well as our franchisee partners, to deliver on the core strategic and operational initiatives we have identified.
“We have made a promising start to 2026, and I have strong conviction about Domino's long-term prospects.”
The company said Frampton would work alongside the existing leadership team, including recently appointed chief financial officer Andrew Andrea, to deliver the strategic priorities outlined in the company’s 2025 results.
