Scott said; “I want to thank Darin and the entire leadership team for the opportunity to work side by side with such a passionate and driven organization. I am confident that both the Jack in the Box and Del Taco brands will continue to make strides in achieving their strategic goals and delivering long-term shareholder value.”
