Who was appointed CEO of Victoria's Secret in September 2024?

Hillary Super was appointed CEO of Victoria’s Secret in September 2024.

Victoria’s Secret & Co. announced her appointment in August 2024, with her term beginning on September 9. She succeeded Martin Waters and also joined the company’s board of directors. Timothy “TJ” Johnson, the company’s chief financial and administrative officer, served as interim CEO during the transition.

Super brought extensive retail and merchandising experience to the role. Before joining Victoria’s Secret, she was CEO of Savage X Fenty, Rihanna’s intimates and accessories company. Earlier, she served as global CEO of Anthropologie Group and held leadership roles at several major apparel retailers.

The appointment came as Victoria’s Secret sought to reshape its brand and improve performance in a changing lingerie market. John Mehas had led the company earlier, while Les Wexner was the longtime chairman and CEO of its former parent, L Brands; neither was the September 2024 appointee. Martin Waters was Super’s immediate predecessor.
