Uber Hires Apple Music Marketer Bozoma Saint John
Posted in: UncategorizedUber has made another high-profile hire at a time when its brand could use the boost. Bozoma Saint John is joining Uber from Apple Music, where she had served as head of global consumer marketing for three years. At San Francisco-based Uber, she’ll be chief brand officer.
Saint John is not the first marketing exec the ride-hailing company has poached. Last fall, Jeff Jones, former chief marketing officer at Target, joined Uber as president of ride sharing. He left in March, however, amid company controversies that had CEO Travis Kalanick seeking “leadership help” and a chief operating officer. That was viewed as a de facto demotion for Jones.
The controversies also included allegations of sexual harassment at the company, sparking an investigation that resulted in the firing of more than 20 employees, Uber said Tuesday.
