HEINEKEN announces Executive Team appointments
Amsterdam, 4 March 2020 - Heineken N.V. today
announces the appointment of a new Chief Supply Chain Officer and
the company’s first Chief Digital and Technology Officer.
Following a distinguished and highly successful
career at HEINEKEN, spanning 25 years of which 15 years as Chief
Supply Chain Officer and Executive Team member, Marc Gross will
retire as Chief Supply Chain Officer in April 2020. He will per
that date be succeeded in the Executive Team by Magne Setnes,
currently General Manager of Brau Union AG, HEINEKEN’s business in
Austria. Magne Setnes joined HEINEKEN in 2000 and has held a number
of senior international leadership roles across Supply Chain,
Commerce and General Management in The Netherlands, United States,
and Austria.
Ronald den Elzen will join the Executive Team as
HEINEKEN’s first Chief Digital and Technology Officer. The world is
changing fast, with tremendous opportunities for the beer industry
and HEINEKEN. Consumers, customers and employees expect a seamless
digital experience when they interact with all brands and the
company. In 2019, ‘Connect in a digital world’ was launched as the
fifth business priority. The appointment of our first Chief Digital
and Technology Officer underpins the ambition to become the world’s
most connected brewer.
Having joined HEINEKEN 25 years ago, Ronald den
Elzen most recently served as Managing Director of HEINEKEN USA.
Previous roles have included Finance Director in The Netherlands
and HEINEKEN UK as well as Managing Director of Sociedade Central
de Cervejas, the Company’s Portuguese business. Ronald’s
appointment is effective immediately.
Jean-François van Boxmeer, Chairman of the
Executive Board / CEO, commented: “I would like to thank Marc Gross
for his enormous contribution to HEINEKEN. Marc has been critical
for managing the growth of this company. While during the last 15
years our volumes, number of breweries and number of brands grew
significantly, he has made the complexity of our global supply
chain feel easy. Today thanks to Marc and his global teams across
our regions, we have a very high performing supply chain
organisation. I am delighted by the appointments of Magne Setnes
and Ronald den Elzen. They are two highly experienced and versatile
HEINEKEN executives who have a lot to bring to our company. Our
Executive Team very much looks forward to working with them.”
A successor for Magne Setnes in Austria will be
announced in due course.
