The Hershey Co. has named a new chief financial officer and other executives who will report to President and CEO Michele Buck.

“These appointments are testament to Hershey’s internal succession planning and its ability to attract deeply experienced talent and expertise from outside of the company,” Buck said. “As Hershey advances its vision of becoming an innovative snacking powerhouse, these executive changes bring business continuity, exceptional leadership, operational excellence, and strategic experiences and perspectives to take our business to the next level.”

The following leaders join Hershey’s executive leadership team:

Voskuil joins Hershey from Avanos Medical, a global medical device company, where he has served as chief financial officer since 2014. He previously served as a senior finance executive at Kimberly-Clark with strong operational management experience in addition to his deep financial expertise. Voskuil succeeds Patricia Little, who will retire in May.
