Estée Lauder Creates Chief Value Chain Officer Role as Part of Leadership Reorganization

Among the priorities is consolidating its existing regional organization into four geographic clusters.

The Estée Lauder Companies is undergoing a leadership reorganization, including a new structure for its executive team to simplify operations across the business to better serve consumers, according to president and CEO Stéphane de La Faverie.

As part of this effort, the company has created a new position to lead the company’s packaging and engineering organizations. Roberto Canevari takes on the new role of chief value chain officer, overseeing the global supply chain, which includes manufacturing, fulfillment, planning, supplier management, quality, environment, health and safety, and region and brand value chains.

Canevari has been with Estée Lauder since 2021 and was previously EVP and chief supply chain officer, per LinkedIn. His background includes leadership roles with supply chain oversight for companies such as Unilever, Burberry, Nestle Waters, and Carrefour.
