The Amrize board of directors appointed Baris Oran as CFO and a member of the company’s executive committee.
Oran succeeds Ian Johnston, who will step down from the role and remain with the company as a senior advisor to support a smooth transition.
Oran joins Amrize from GXO Logistics, where he served as CFO following its spinoff from XPO.
“I thank Ian for his outstanding contributions over a 27-year career with the company,” says Jan Jenisch, chairman and CEO of Amrize. “Ian played an instrumental role in the successful spinoff of Amrize and listing as a publicly traded company. We appreciate Ian’s dedicated service, which helped establish Amrize’s financial strength from our investment-grade credit rating and strong balance sheet to leading cash conversion. We wish him continued success in his future endeavors.
“I am excited to welcome Baris to our team at an important time for our company,” Jenisch adds. “Baris is a high-impact leader with an exceptional track record of building high-performance finance teams. He is ideally positioned to build on our strong financial foundation to accelerate profitable growth.”
Oran’s finance career includes executive roles and experience with capital allocation, M&A, balance sheet management and capital markets. He previously served as CFO of the Sabanci Group, CFO of Kordsa and in leadership roles at Ernst & Young, PwC and Sara Lee Corp.
