Starbucks begins hunt for new finance head
Starbucks Corp. is looking for a new CFO.
The coffee giant announced that Scott Maw, executive VP and CFO, is retiring, effective Nov. 30. Maw has been in the role since February 2014.
Starbucks has launched an external search for a new CFO. Maw will support the transition in a senior consultant role through March 2019.
“I am grateful for the contributions Scott has made over the past seven years that led to the unprecedented growth of Starbucks,” said Kevin Johnson, president and CEO. “As we enter our next phase of continued growth, I am confident in the finance team Scott has developed and am appreciative of his willingness to support through the transition into new leadership.”
Maw joined Starbucks as global controller in 2011.
