Reuters names new CFO

March 24, 2014

Posted by Chris Roush

Reuters chief executive officer Andrew Rashbass sent out the following announcement on Monday:

Claudia Palmer starts today as CFO for Reuters based in London, reporting to me.

Claudia most recently worked at EMI Music Publishing where she was EVP and chief operating officer for Europe having been SVP, corporate development, for EMI Group plc in charge of Investor Relations and Corporate Finance. Before that she was VP, business development, at The North Face. Prior to that, she had a previous stint at EMI and worked at Bain and Parthenon. She has a bachelor’s degree from Brown University and an MBA from Harvard Business School.

John Carrozza can now move full-time into his role as global head of finance and sales operations for Reuters Agency reporting to Claudia with a dotted line to Steven Schwartz. Once again, I want to thank John for continuing to cover the CFO role for the past few months alongside his new responsibilities. Along with John, the rest of the Reuters finance team will now report to Claudia.

Claudia’s experience and commercial flair will be a huge asset to Reuters. Please join me in welcoming her.
