MILAN — The organizational changes at Gucci continue under the lead of president and chief executive officer Francesca Bellettini and creative director Demna.
Gianluca de Ficchy was named chief financial officer, effective Monday, reporting to Bellettini. He succeeds Alberto Valente, whose title was chief financial, data and operations officer, and who worked at Gucci for 17 years.
Like Luca de Meo, who took on the role of CEO of parent company Kering on Sept. 15, de Ficchy joins Gucci from the automotive industry. He was most recently CEO of Mobilize within the Renault Group and was chairman of the board of directors of RCI Banque SA. He began his career at Ernst & Young, then joined RCI Bank ad Services and advanced through several key roles at FCA and Nissan.
