Leadership Commentary

Chair of the Board Donna James said, “VS&Co welcomes Hillary as our new CEO to power the business’ next chapter and deliver the foremost tenet of our transformation strategy: accelerating growth in our core business in North America. We are particularly impressed with her merchant leadership capabilities paired with an operator’s discipline and bias for driving value creation. She understands vertically integrated retail brands and has an intuitive understanding of the consumer landscape, informed by customer insights which are critical for consistently delivering in this industry and its ever-accelerating fashion and economic cycles. We are confident that Hillary can leverage VS&Co’s industry-leading brands with significant category and international expansion opportunities to accelerate growth and create shareholder value."

James continued, “We thank Martin for his many contributions to Victoria’s Secret. He has established a foundation for VS&Co to enter its next chapter, building an inclusive culture, growing our digital platform capabilities, enhancing the customer experience online and in stores, repositioning our international business for growth, and successfully executing our multi-year separation from our former parent company. We believe now is the right time to take the next step on our journey with new merchant-operator leadership to fully capitalize on the opportunities ahead for VS&Co. In the interim, the Board will work closely with TJ and the leadership team to ensure a smooth transition."

Commenting on her appointment, Super said, “I am excited to join VS&Co, the market leader in the domestic intimates category. The strength of these iconic brands, supplemented by an incredible beauty business, provides numerous opportunities for future growth. I look forward to working with Donna and the rest of the Board and management team to make VS&Co the world’s leading fashion retailer of intimate apparel, rapidly expand our cultural influence, and create a dominant global market position to grow shareholder value.”

Waters said, “I am proud of what we have accomplished during my time at VS&Co. We drove international expansion, enhanced our operational efficiency and significantly improved our company culture. I want to thank our incredible associates for all their hard work and wish the team the very best for the future.”
