The Italian fashion house Valentino is strengthening its management team. The company named Antonio Achille as chief operating and transformation officer.
The appointment is part of the organizational development of the brand, which belongs to the Mayhoola investment group, according to a statement. The aim is therefore to strengthen operational efficiency, innovation and international development.
The manager took up his new post on April 8th and will in future report directly to CEO Riccardo Bellini, who has been at the helm of the fashion house since the beginning of September last year. Achille will therefore be responsible for all industrial activities as well as the areas of digital and technology.
According to Valentino, Achille will lead the company’s transformation program in addition to the operational business. The focus is on processes, innovation, technological development and supporting the long-term growth of the brand.
Prior to his appointment, the manager served as senior vice president of business development, strategy, innovation and new business at Chalhoub Group in the United Arab Emirates. He was previously CEO of Natuzzi, senior partner at McKinsey and global head of luxury at Boston Consulting Group.
