The office products, supplies, services and solutions supplier has named Timothy J. Perrott as its new Vice President of Investor Relations.
In his new role, Perrott will oversee the development and execution of Office Depot’s investor relations strategy, as well as leading the dialogue with the investment and analyst community about the company’s business strategies and financial performance, and will report directly to Joe Lower, EVP and Chief Financial Officer.
Perrott joins Office Depot from CommandScape, a building services technology company, where he most recently served as CFO and Head of Investor Relations.
Perrott boasts more than two decades of investor relations experience, and has cultivated strong relationships across the investment community. In previous posts, he held the position of Vice President of Investor Relations at ADT Security Services, Nextel International, and Gilat Satellite & Orbital Sciences. His career began as an electrical engineer at Southern Company, progressing to Head of Investor Relations for the organisation.
“Tim brings a wealth of relevant experience to our organisation and we are excited to welcome him to our team,” said Lower. “I am certain his broad expertise and proven track record will further strengthen our investor relations initiatives and deepen the understanding of Office Depot’s transformational strategy within the financial community.”
Perrot also holds a Master of Business Administration from the College of William and Mary, and a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering from Auburn University.
