Restoration Hardware promoted Sandy Pilon to chief customer experience and values officer, and it named Ryan Hassanein chief legal and compliance officer.
In her new role, Pilon leads the company’s gallery, hospitality, interior design, trade, contract, delight, people and optimization teams across RH operations globally. Prior to the promotion, she served as the retailer’s chief people officer.
Gary Friedman, RH chairman and CEO, said, “Over the past 18 years Sandy (Pilon) has been an important partner and leader of RH’s transformation into the leading luxury home brand in the world. Her exceptional leadership and passionate advocacy of our values and beliefs give me great confidence in Sandy’s ability to build and lead a team capable of building one of the most admired brands in the world.”
Hassanein oversees RH’s legal and compliance functions, including product safety and vendor compliance.
Before joining RH, Hassanein spent more than 10 years at healthcare company McKesson Corp., where he was a member of the chief legal officer leadership team with responsibilities spanning litigation, regulatory, compliance, government relations, supply chain and technology.
Of Hassanein’s appointment, Friedman said: “We are thrilled to welcome Ryan to Team RH. Ryan’s leadership experience extends well beyond the traditional scope of a legal role based on the range of his contributions at McKesson, one of the largest and most sophisticated companies in the world from a legal and compliance perspective. We believe Ryan is an outstanding addition to our Executive Leadership Team as we continue to optimize our business as part of our growth and international expansion.”
