Latest big pharma CFO announces retirement
A month after US healthcare giant Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) announced that its chief financial officer (CFO) Dominic Caruso was to retire after 12 years in the role and Takeda's (TYO: 4502) finance boss left his job with the Japanese firm, France’s biggest pharma company has said that it is losing its long-standing CFO.
Jérôme Contamine is to retire later in 2018 after nine years in the role with Sanofi (Euronext: SAN) and will work with the drugmaker to find his replacement and assist with the transition.
There is likely to be interest among shareholders in France over the nationality of the new CFO. Previously, the company’s appointment of foreign candidates to top positions has not been unanimously popular with its French stakeholders.
