In his new post, Bowie will be responsible for overseeing operations at the Atlanta-based chain’s corporate and franchised restaurants.
“John’s QSR experience, expertise and solid track record for delivering results will be a catalyst in driving relentless satisfaction for our customers and franchisees,” Mel Deane, Church’s chief executive, said in a statement.
