Coty Names Former Microsoft Executive Lubomira Rochet to Board of Directors

Coty has appointed Lubomira Rochet to its Board of Directors.

 

Rochet is a partner at JAB Holding Company and brings over 20 years of experience. She previously served as chief digital officer and member of the executive committee at L’Oréal for seven years, where she transformed the cosmetics company to a “digital-first” business across 35 international beauty brands and 120 markets. 

 

Rochet’s work and impact was recognized in 2019, when she was named the “Marketer of the Year” by the World Federation of Advertisers.

 

Her appointment increases female representation on Coty’s Board of Directors to 50%, and the total number of directors to 12. Coty’s five-member Executive Committee, led by CEO Sue Y. Nabi, already holds female-majority.

 

“We are delighted to welcome Lubomira to our board of directors,” said Nabi. “Her deep industry experience and extensive track record of driving digital transformation will be an invaluable asset as we enhance our omnichannel approach. I look forward to working closely with Lubomira in the future and to harnessing her valuable perspective and insights on the future of digital integration for the industry and our business.”

 

Before joining L’Oréal, Rochet also served in management positions at CapGemini and Microsoft. In 2010, she became Deputy CEO of Valtech, a leading digital marketing agency, where she worked across a variety of sectors, including luxury, fashion and FMCG, to accelerate their digital, data and tech transformation.
