Expedia Group Inc. Monday said it tapped executives from Apple
Inc. and Verizon Communications Inc. to its C-suite, effective May
31, and reclassified its operating structure, an endeavor that will
entail several executives leaving the company.
The online-travel agency on Monday said it is appointing Rathi
Murthy, the chief technology officer of the Verizon Media unit, to
the same position at Expedia as well as president of the newly
structured Expedia Services business. Jon Gieselman, who led
marketing for Apple's services portfolio, will become president of
the newly structured Expedia Brands, the company said.
Apart from Services and Brands, Expedia said its new operating
structure will also include Expedia Marketplace and Expedia for
Business. Leaving the company in the next several months are Cyril
Ranque, president of the Travel Partners Group business; Adam Jay,
president and co-lead of marketing; and Tucker Moodey, president of
retail product and technology, Expedia said.
Jeff Hurst, Expedia's previous president and co-lead of
marketing, will become Expedia Brands' operating chief, reporting
to Mr. Gieselman, the company said. John Kim, the previous
president of platform and marketplaces, will become the president
of Expedia Marketplace, the company added. Ariane Gorin, the
president of Expedia Business Services, will become president of
the newly formed Expedia for Business, which oversees
business-to-business relationships.
"As we move into four clearer operating divisions, the addition
of Rathi and Jon and new roles for John and Ariane demonstrate our
commitment to simplifying our business so we can be more agile and
deliver innovative products faster," said Peter Kern, Expedia's
vice chairman and chief executive.
