GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — The Green Bay Packers have announced the search committee that will find the organization’s next top leader.
Current president/CEO Mark Murphy plans to retire in July 2025 when he turns 70, as required by the organization’s bylaws.
Susan Finco, the vice president of the executive committee and lead director, will chair the search committee. Dan Ariens, executive committee secretary and chair of the personnel and compensation committee, will be the vice chair of the search committee.
“Mark’s contributions to the organization have been tremendous,” Finco said in a news release. “From updating the corporate leadership structure to growing and diversifying revenue to increasing the meaningful impact of the Packers in the community, Mark continues to position the Packers for success. We look forward to his insightful leadership in the next year and a half.”
The rest of the committee will be:
Mike Simmer (treasurer, executive committee)
DJ Long (executive committee, personnel and compensation committee)
Marcia Anderson (executive committee)
Karl Schmidt (executive committee)
Michael Barber (Packers Foundation chair)
Jeff Joerres (investment committee chair)
Eddie Garcia (former player, board member at-large)
Robyn Davis (board member at-large)
Mike Daniels (board member at-large)
The search committee is working with search firm Korn Ferry. The Packers organization has worked with Korn Ferry before, including when Murphy was hired to succeed Bob Harlan in 2007.
“Our search committee takes this responsibility very seriously as our new leader will shape the Packers’ future,” Ariens said in a news release. “We have been preparing the past several months for this important process, which will be comprehensive and align with NFL rules and requirements, and are pleased to be able to work with Jed Hughes and his team at Korn Ferry.”
The search process is expected to take six to nine months, culminating in a vote by the full board of directors. The Packers organization expects the new president/CEO to work with Murphy for a period.
