Canada Goose has announced several strategic appointments and departures to its leadership team. The restructuring is intended to support the Canadian premium outdoor brand’s long-term corporate strategy and strengthen operational excellence in key international markets.
Leadership changes in the Asia-Pacific region
Daniel Binder will take on additional responsibility in the Asia-Pacific region in the future. He has been appointed President Asia Pacific, a position he will hold from April 10, 2026, alongside his current role as Chief Transformation Officer.
Binder succeeds Jonathan Sinclair, who is handing over the presidency after a term with a clear focus on operational discipline. However, Sinclair, who previously served as the group’s chief financial officer (CFO), remains associated with the company. As a board member of regional subsidiaries, he is responsible for ensuring strategic continuity.
In parallel, Canada Goose is expanding its retail expertise on a global scale. Niclas Ekerot will join the company as Senior Vice President Global Stores with immediate effect, taking over from Binder.
Ekerot has more than 25 years of experience in luxury retail. His previous positions include senior positions at Bottega Veneta, Michael Kors, Gucci and Burberry. In his new role, he will focus on further sharpening the customer experience and expanding the brand’s global retail presence.
Interim arrangement for North America
Changes are also coming to North America. Ana Mihaljevic, President of North America, decided to leave the company in February after more than a decade in senior roles. The search for a permanent successor is already underway.
Until the new appointment is made, Carrie Baker, President Brand and Commercial, will assume interim responsibility for the North American market. Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Dani Reiss also praised the achievements of Sinclair and Mihaljevic, who contributed significantly to building the foundation for the company’s next chapter.
