Lululemon Chief Product Officer Sun Choe is leaving the company later in May to pursue another opportunity, the athletics retailer announced in a press release Tuesday. Lululemon is taking the opportunity to restructure its management team and will not replace her.
Instead, Global Creative Director Jonathan Cheung will become responsible for product design and innovation strategy, and Chief Brand Officer Nikki Neuburger will become chief brand and product activation officer, adding merchandising, footwear and product operations to her purview.
Cheung will report to CEO Calvin McDonald, and Chief Merchandising Officer Elizabeth Binder will report to Neuburger. The company said the organizational changes will support its growth plans, speed up product innovation and “further enable its go-to-market strategies.”
