Marco Gobbetti to join Burberry this month via The Industry
Date Posted: Monday 16th January 2017
Marco Gobbetti is to join Burberry earlier than expected at the end of this month but will initially take the role of executive chairman for Asia Pacific and the Middle East before stepping into the role of chief executive, for which he was recruited last year, on 4 July.
Gobbetti joins the British luxury house from LVMH-owned Céline and was appointed to the position of CEO at Burberry last July after Christopher Bailey had come under pressure from the city to relinquish one half of his joint role of chief executive and chief creative officer.
