Rocky Brands ends search for CEO

20/12/2016
Footwear group Rocky Brands has appointed Mike Brooks as its new CEO. He had been acting CEO since September 8, 2016, following the resignation of David Sharp. 

The company’s board of directors had been searching externally for his replacement, but search this has now been suspended. 

“Since coming back to serve as interim chief executive officer in early September, I have been re-energised by the skills and devotion of our associates to design, manufacture and deliver quality footwear to our customers,” Mr Brooks said. 

“As we bring a close to what has been a difficult year, I believe that we are laying the groundwork for improved performance in 2017 and beyond and I look forward to working with the entire Rocky Brands team in 2017,” he added.
