Foot Locker has appointed Robert Higginbotham as interim Chief Financial Officer (CFO).
He will assume the role effective March 1, alongside his previous responsibilities as senior vice president, investor relations and financial planning and analysis, Foot Locker said Tuesday. Meanwhile, the US sneaker retailer is looking for a new chief financial officer.
Higginbotham joined Foot Locker early last year as Vice President, Investor Relations and then assumed his current position in December. Prior to that, he spent nearly 20 years on Wall Street as an equity analyst and portfolio manager, including at Guidepoint Global, BTG Pactual, SunTrust Robinson Humphrey and Goldman Sachs & Co.
Previously, Andrew Page served as Chief Financial Officer. As announced in November, he will leave the company at the end of the month.
