PVH, owner of brands including Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger, has appointed Marie Gulin-Merle to the newly created role of chief digital officer (CDO), to lead the company’s global digital strategy. Gulin-Merle assumes the role in addition to her current position as chief marketing officer at Calvin Klein.
As CDO she will focus on defining and executing the company’s strategic priorities to drive consumer engagement and evolve how it operates by leveraging technology to be dynamic, nimble and forward-thinking.
