Yesterday, Sephora North America has announced a significant leadership change with Delphine Herve being named the new Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Having joined Sephora in 2014, Herve has held numerous finance roles within the company and will officially assume her new position in April 2025. She will be succeeding Christophe Le Boterff, the current Executive Vice President and CFO, who will retire after a successful tenure that began in 2017. During his time, Le Boterff played a key role in strengthening Sephora’s financial operations and supporting the company’s significant growth.
This announcement comes shortly after another major leadership shift within Sephora, as Artemis Patrick was recently promoted to CEO, making her the first woman to hold the position at Sephora North America. Patrick expressed her excitement for Herve’s promotion, highlighting her extensive expertise and strong partnership skills.
Sephora continues to hold its position as the leading prestige beauty retailer in the U.S., generating $10 billion in sales. Along with ongoing store renovations, Sephora is also expanding its partnership with Kohl’s Corp., aiming to be present in the entire Kohl’s store network by mid-2025, contributing to an expected $2 billion in sales from this collaboration alone.
