MCD McDonalds Corp

By Colin Kellaher

McDonald's Corp. (MCD) on Tuesday said it named Ian Borden to the newly created post of president, international.

The Chicago fast-food giant said Mr. Borden, who had been president of international developmental licensed markets, will now have oversight of all international markets, including international operated markets.

McDonald's said Mr. Borden, who has spent 25 years with the company, will continue reporting to President and Chief Executive Chris Kempczinski. Mr. Kempczinski took the helm in early November when McDonald's fired Steve Easterbrook over a consensual relationship with an employee.

Joe Erlinger, who had been president of international operated markets, succeeded Mr. Kempczinski as president of McDonald's USA.
