James Hardie names new CFO

3/4/2020
Building products manufacturer James Hardie Industries has appointed Jason Miele as senior vice president and chief financial officer.

Miele will be based at James Hardie’s Chicago headquarters and report to CEO Jack Truong.

“Jason brings a strong track record of financial and business leadership, as well as an in-depth knowledge of the James Hardie business,” Truong said. ”His financial skills, international experience and leadership attributes complement our strong performance-oriented culture and make him the right choice to lead our finance organization during this critical time as we continue to execute on our global strategic plan.”

Miele has over 13 years of experience with James Hardie and has served in a number of roles during his tenure. Most recently he served as vice president of investor and media relations, a position he has held since in February 2017. In that role, Miele had responsibility for overseeing James Hardie’s investor relations strategy and communicating its business strategy and financial performance to various stakeholders including shareholders, investment analysts, and the financial media

With Miele’s appointment, interim CFO Anne Lloyd will step down from her position. Lloyd, who is also a member of the company’s board of directors, will continue to serve as a non-executive member of the board.

“I would like to thank Anne for her service as Interim Chief Financial Officer,” Truong said. “I appreciate her leadership and contributions to James Hardie during this transition. Anne’s oversight during this interim period provided us the opportunity to conduct a comprehensive search for a new CFO, considering both internal and external candidates, ensuring we identified the best leader.”

Former CFO Matthew Marsh left James Hardie last August and resurfaced as the new CFO of Katerra.
