Carrefour, Europe's largest food retailer, has appointed Elodie Perthuisot as its new digital boss, effective from March 1.
Perthuisot, 44, who joined Carrefour in 2018, replaces Amelie Oudea-Castera as head of data e-commerce and digital transformation.
Oudea-Castera is leaving the group to pursue a personal project, Carrefour said in a statement.
Perthuisot, who is also joining Carrefour's executive board, was a marketing executive between 2012 and 2018 at retailer Fnac Darty, the French group previously headed by Carrefour boss Alexandre Bompard.
Since 2020, she has been executive director e-commerce and supply chain at Carrefour France.
Bompard pledged in 2018 to spend €2.8 billion to expand the group's global digital business by 2022.
