July 24, 2024
Several Target leaders have been named to new roles as part of its growth strategy.
Christina Hennington, formerly chief growth officer, has taken on on the role of chief strategy and growth officer, and Rick Gomez, who had been chief food, essentials and beauty officer, is now chief commercial officer, overseeing Target's merchandising business.
Lisa Roath, Target's chief marketing officer, will take on the role of chief merchandising officer of food, essentials and beauty in early 2025, according to a press release.
The company is initiating an external search for its next chief marketing officer and, until a successor is named, Roath will remain in full capacity as chief marketing officer.
"As we execute our 2024 plans and look to the future, we're putting key leaders and capabilities in place to sustain profitable growth over the long term. Today's announcement builds on our January appointment of Michael Fiddelke to chief operating officer and will further accelerate progress on our growth initiatives," Brian Cornell, chair and CEO, said in the release.
