• Walmart said yesterday that it has hired William White, senior vice president of marketing at Target, to be its new chief marketing officer.
Bloomberg writes that "White, a former Coca-Cola Co. executive, joined Target in 2013 and oversaw category and brand marketing, including the retailer’s ubiquitous 'Target Run; campaign. At Walmart, White will report to Chief Customer Officer Janey Whiteside and fill a role that’s been vacant for nearly a year since the departure of Barbara Messing."
