McDonald's Corporation announced that Kevin Ozan will be assuming a new position and has been promoted to Senior Executive Vice President, Strategic Initiatives, and that Francesca recently shared with her decision to retire from McDonald's, effective August 31, 2022. Ian Borden, currently President, International and a 30-year System veteran, has been appointed to serve as next Executive Vice President effective September 1, 2022. Marion Gross, Chief Supply Chain Officer of North America, has been promoted to Executive Vice President, Global Chief Supply Chain Officer, and will join the Global Senior Leadership Team, effective September 1, 2022.

Kevin and Francesca are long-time McDonald's veterans, with over forty years of combined System experience and careers that were purpose-built for their positions on Global Senior Leadership Team. They were well-known and highly respected, and their appointments – Kevin as Chief Financial Officer and Francesca as Global Chief Supply Chain Officer – coincided with the multi-year reinvigoration of business that has led to current position of strength. Kevin has been with McDonald's since 1997, when he joined from Ernst & Young.

From the moment Kevin stepped foot here, it was clear to everyone who interacted with him that he brought something truly special to System. Ian is well-known for being a values-based leader with a tremendous amount of System knowledge. He first joined System in Canada in 1994.

From there, he went on to serve in roles including as CFO for Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa region and CFO for Russia and Eastern Europe. He's also had several leadership and P&L roles across markets and regions. Marion's impressive career at McDonald's has spanned 29 years, but she had already been a part of the System for several years having managed transportation and logistics at HAVI.

Most recently, Marion has been responsible for executing the strategic direction of McDonald's Supply Chain across the U.S. and Canada.
