Volcom’s Senior Vice President of Strategic Development and General Counsel Hoby Darling continues the post PPR acquisition VeeCo executive team departures by announcing that he is leaving the company and taking a job with Nike where he will be “head of strategy and planning for its affiliate brands,” according to a story on FINS.com.
Darling’s thoughts on leaving make sense:
For me, I had taken the company public, helped grow it from a $116 million company to almost $400 million, then sold it to a great company in PPR. It felt like, hey, been there, done that, I had done what my role was designed to do in strategic development and decided it was time for the next challenge.
News like this always makes us wonder who will be next. Who could it be? For the rest of the Darling interview click the link.
