The new president will report to chief executive officer and chairman Muhtar Kent.

"Over nearly two decades, James has built an impressive track record of strategic, operational and commercial accomplishments. He has proven to be a successful and trusted leader and brings to this position a strong reputation for developing people and inspiring teams," Kent said.
