Unilever elevates Priya Nair to the role of President, Beauty and Wellbeing

Unilever has announced a slew of changes in its top leadership executive. As part of the same, Priya Nair, who was currently holding the position of Chief Marketing Officer at Unilever’s Beauty and Wellbeing Business Group, has been elevated to the role of President.

She will be replacing Fernando Fernandez in her new role. Fernandez, who currently serves as the President of Unilever’s Beauty and Wellbeing Business Group, has been elevated to the Chief Financial Officer of the company.

This comes at a time when the incumbent Unilever CFO, Graeme Pitkethly, announced his decision to retire from the company.

In March last year, Nair assumed the global role of Chief Marketing Officer, Beauty and Wellbeing at Unilever. Previously, she was the Executive Director, Beauty and Wellbeing and Personal Care, HUL.

Additionally, Eduardo Campanella was also appointed President, Home Care, Unilever. He is currently serving as the Chief Marketing Officer of Unilever’s Home Care business.

Moreover, Esi Eggleston Bracey, General Manager, Personal Care, North America and Head of Country, US, has also been appointed to the new role of Chief Growth and Marketing Officer.

Sharing his views on the new elevations, Hein Schumacher, CEO, Unilever, said, “Fernando has had a very impressive track record throughout his Unilever career, in a variety of financial, marketing and general management roles. His deep financial and business experience, strategic acumen and leadership qualities will be critical in helping to drive the step-up in Unilever’s performance that we are all determined to deliver. I look forward to working with him to deliver the action plan we have set out today to drive our growth and realise our potential.”

“Priya, Esi and Edu represent part of an exceptional generation of Unilever leaders who combine world-class marketing skills with frontline experience. I am delighted they will join the Unilever Leadership Executive,” he added.
