Danaher Corp. on Tuesday unveiled changes in its human-resources and accounting leadership ahead of the planned retirement of a pair of executives.

The Washington science and technology conglomerate said Georgeann Couchara, currently vice president of talent, will succeed Angela Lalor as senior vice president of human resources, effective April 1, 2022.

Danaher said Ms. Lalor, who joined the company in 2012, will move to a part-time advisory role until she retires in the first quarter of 2023.

Ms. Couchara, who joined Danaher in 2004, will join the company's leadership team and its office of the chief executive, reporting to President and CEO Rainer Blair.

Meanwhile, Danaher said Robert Lutz, who joined the company in 2002 and has been senior vice president and chief accounting officer since 2010, plans to retire in the fourth quarter of 2022.

The company said Christopher Bouda, who joined as vice president of finance in 2016, will succeed Mr. Lutz as chief accounting officer at the start of next year, while Mr. Lutz will remain on a part-time basis until his retirement.
