October was quiet in terms of restaurant leadership changes. Compared to the past few months, this is the slowest in a while across the industry.
This month, P.F. Chang’s announced a new CEO to follow Damola Adamolekun, who took over when the brand was purchased in 2019 by Paulson & Co., where he was a managing partner.
TGI Fridays also named a new CEO just a few months after its previous one arrived. The former CEO left for personal reasons.
Plus, Domino’s appointed a new executive vice president of human resources, Denny’s named a new chief digital and technology officer, PDQ promoted a new chief people officer internally, and El Pollo Loco named a new chief marketing officer.
In other news, Just Salad named a new chief technology officer, Focus Brands introduced new supply chain, customer engagement and digital leaders, and Paris Baguette named a new chief development officer.
See which executives were on the move.
