Coca-Cola Hellenic appoints Murray as CFO

Coca-Cola Hellenic appoints Murray as CFO

Current CFO Nik Jhangiani will move to the newly created post of Strategy and Business Development Director.

Athens-based Coca-Cola Hellenic said Jhangiani will focus on new opportunities for growth across the company’s product portfolio and vast territory, which covers almost 30 countries, from the Republic of Ireland to the east of Russia, and from Estonia to Nigeria. Jhangiani will report directly to Doros Constantinou, MD of Coca-Cola Hellenic.

The company noted that new CFO Murray has held a number of senior executive posts within the Coca-Cola system, and has a record of driving operational excellence and tight cost control.

Murray began his Coke career in 1987 with the Coca-Cola Bottling Co of New York, where he served as Controller of Operations, Director of Purchasing and CFO for the BevServ Division. In 1997, he joined Coca-Cola Amatil in Vienna as Business Planning Manager for Europe, and later Vending Manager.

In 2001, Coca-Cola Hellenic appointed Murray General Manager in Hungary, and in 2006 he became General Manager in Switzerland.

Murray was officially appointed Deputy CFO less than two months ago. However, Coca-Cola Hellenic said he had been working closely with Jhangiani since July, to ensure a seamless transition to his new role.
