Marvin, a premium manufacturer of windows and doors, has named Rick Johnson as its first-ever Chief Digital Officer (CDO).
Johnson joins the company’s senior leadership team and will oversee the design of Marvin’s future-state enterprise technology and digital strategy – as well as its data and analytics initiatives.
“Leveraging the power of technology remains central to our growth strategy at Marvin,” said Paul Marvin, CEO. “Rick’s successful track record of leading organizational change across diverse technology and manufacturing organizations makes him a perfect fit for this inaugural role.
“He is adept at driving complex organizational transformations at the size and scale at which Marvin is planning to grow to in the future.”
Johnson’s experience adds to Marvin’s transformational journey.
In his most recent role at Sonoco, a US$7 billion packaging manufacturer, Johnson and his team transformed the company’s operating and commercial models through innovative digital capabilities while overseeing technology services that supported 300-plus sites and plants in 33 countries.
Johnson will be stepping down from Marvin’s board to focus on his new CDO role.
“I’m eager to further the company’s significant transformation that will heavily leverage modern technology across digital, automation, data and analytics,” he said.
