Convatec has appointed a new leadership team following the death of CEO Karim Bitar last month.
Jonny Mason has been appointed permanent CEO at the medical products and technologies business, with Fiona Ryder named CFO.
Mason joined the FTSE 100 firm as CFO in 2022 and took up the CEO role on an interim basis in early August when Bitar took a medical leave of absence.
Bitar, who had led the company since 2019, passed away on 27th October.
“Colleagues at Convatec are deeply saddened by this devastating news. Our sincerest sympathies are with Karim’s wife and family, and we extend our condolences to them,” read a statement from the firm on that date.
