Professional Journey

Little of Goldsmith’s career before his current role has been published in sources this profile can use. The trade press on his promotion does not give his earlier title at Just Play or the year he joined.

What is on record is the promotion. In early August 2026 The Toy Book and Toy World Magazine reported that Just Play had named him President of Just Play Global, overseeing the company’s global organisation, driving alignment across teams and leading strategic initiatives for growth. The reports said that since joining he had strengthened the company’s global operations and expanded its relationships with retailers and licensors. Those relationships matter a great deal to a toy maker whose range depends on licensed characters and placement with major retailers.

The promotion was part of a wider change at the top of the company. Co-founders Geoffrey Greenberg and Charlie Emby became Co-Chief Executive Officers. Greenberg said Goldsmith’s “strategic vision, collaborative leadership, and commitment to our business have helped drive our success.” Emby said both founders “remain fully engaged in the day-to-day leadership of the company”. As a result, Goldsmith runs the global organisation below two co-CEOs who are still actively involved.
