Walgreens has filled the five-month vacancy in its chief marketing officer post with Linh Peters, whose track record includes brand leadership posts at Calvin Klein and Starbucks.
Peters, who also takes on an svp role, steps into the job previously held by Patrick McLean, who departed Walgreens in January during a period that saw over a half-dozen other marketing chiefs making their respective exits at other major brands. McLean joined online electronics marketplace ecoATM Gazelle as CMO in February.
Peters herself was part of that Great Resignation moment last winter. As leaders decamped from such companies as IBM, TikTok and Formula 1, Peters left her post as global CMO at Calvin Klein in December after a little over a year at the apparel brand.
