Visteon Corp. has announced that William Robertson, currently the company’s vice president and corporate controller, will serve as chief financial officer (CFO) on an interim basis, until a permanent replacement is named.
As announced in January, Jeff Stafeil, who has served as executive vice president and CFO since October 2012, is leaving the company to pursue other opportunities. Visteon’s board of directors is in the process of conducting a search for a permanent CFO.
Robertson, who has been with Visteon since 2000, will continue as corporate controller while serving as interim CFO. His previous positions have included director, corporate finance, a role he held for 12 years; manager, corporate finance; and operations manager. Before joining Visteon, Robertson served as vehicle operations controller for Ford Motor Co.
“Bill is a very knowledgeable and experienced financial leader with a long-term track record of success at the company,” said Visteon President and CEO Sachin Lawande. “We are fortunate to have an individual of his caliber serving as interim CFO during the search for a permanent successor.”
