Heineken Announces Departure of Chief HR Officer
12 Jun 2013 --- Heineken N.V. announced that Michael O'Hare, Chief HR Officer, will leave HEINEKEN and return to the USA in late summer 2013.
Commenting on the change, Jean-François van Boxmeer, Chairman of the Executive Board and CEO of Heineken N.V. said, "This has been a difficult decision for Michael. However personal considerations have led Michael and the family to conclude it is right for them to return to the USA. In the last four years, Michael has played a major role in accelerating our transition to a more performance driven and people-focused company. Along the way he has evolved our understanding of how the growth of our business is linked to the growth of our people and our culture. We have all benefited from his professional, collaborative approach and it has been a pleasure to work with him."
Michael will take up a role with a US-based multinational later in the year.
The process of selecting a new Chief HR Officer is underway and an announcement will be made once concluded.
