Coach on hunt for new CFO

10/06/2016
Leathergoods brand Coach has announced that its chief financial officer, Jane Hamilton Nielsen, is to leave the company to pursue another opportunity. She will remain in the role until August 2016 to facilitate a smooth transition.

The search for her replacement is already underway and Andrea Shaw Resnick, who currently serves the company as global head of investor relations and corporate communications, will be acting CFO until an appointment is made.

“During her tenure, Jane has played an important role as our leadership team’s finance partner and we wish her the best of luck as she embarks on her next chapter,” said Victor Luis, CEO of coach.

The Wall Street Journal reports that Ms Nielsen will be taking up the CFO position at Ralph Lauren, an appointment that could be announced in the coming days.
