and Agnès de Villers appointed to Hermès’ Executive
Committee
Paris, 21 February 2022
Axel Dumas, CEO of Hermès and sixth-generation
family member, has taken the decision to broaden the composition of
the Executive Committee and enrich it with new people and
expertise, effective 1 March 2022:
- Sharon
MacBeath, as Group Human Resources
Director. Originally from Scotland, Sharon MacBeath
joined the house in June 2019. She has spent her entire career in
human resources, working for major international companies in the
distribution, services, and industrial sectors. She has also been a
member of the group’s Supervisory Board and its Governance
committees.
In order to contribute to the sustainable growth
of our house and the enduring development of organisations around
the world, Sharon MacBeath has instilled a new dynamic in human
resources by initiating a major transformation of the function’s
role, missions, and governance with the ambition to cultivate a
collective and unique human project conducive to personal
achievement and success.
- Agnès de Villers,
as President and CEO of Hermès Parfum et
Beauté. Guided by the quest for
meaning, and by her strong desire to cultivate beauty and
authenticity, Agnès de Villiers has dedicated her entire
career to fragrance and beauty. Her expertise has led her from
major international cosmetics groups to smaller organisations and
provided her with nuanced and highly rewarding experience. Agnès de
Villers joined Hermès in 2015 to intensify the house’s endeavours
as a perfume artisan and artist. In March 2020 she launched beauty
– the house’s sixteenth métier – a new territory with multiple
fields of expression and a true growth driver for the group.
These two appointments are an important step in
the development of Hermès and bear witness to the broadening of
skills and personalities within the Executive Committee. Driven by
its creative energy, Hermès is pursuing an ambitious growth
strategy focused on the future and shared by all of its métiers and
markets.
The roles of the nine other members of the
Executive Committee remain
unchanged.https://finance.hermes.com/en/group-management/ .

artisan model and its humanist values. The freedom to create, the
spirit of innovation, the constant search for beautiful materials,

objects created to last. An independent, family-owned company which
encompasses 16 métiers, Hermès is dedicated to keeping the majority
of its production in France through its 52 workshops and production
sites and to developing its network more than 300 stores in 45
countries. The group employs almost 17,600 people worldwide,
including nearly 11,000 in France, among whom nearly 6,000 are
craftsmen*. Axel Dumas, a sixth-generation family member, has been
Hermès CEO since 2013.Founded in 2008, the Fondation d’entreprise
Hermès supports projects in the areas of artistic creation,
training and the transmission of savoir-faire, biodiversity, and
the preservation of the environment.
