Saks Global appointed Brandy Richardson, formerly at Tailored Brands and Neiman Marcus, as chief financial officer, effective August 18.
Richardson succeeds interim chief financial officer Mark Weinsten, who joined Saks Global to lead the company’s finance organization through the initial stages of its transformation following its acquisition of Neiman Marcus Group (NMG) in December 2024.
With nearly 25 years of experience, Richardson joins Saks Global from Tailored Brands, Inc., the parent of Men’s Wearhouse, Jos. A. Bank and Moores. At Tailored Brands, she served as executive vice president and chief financial officer since 2021. Richardson spent the majority of her career at NMG where she held several finance leadership roles of increasing responsibility over her 15-year tenure.
Saks Global merged with Neiman Marcus in December 2024.
“With her deep background in both luxury retail and finance, Brandy is the right leader to drive Saks Global’s financial performance as we execute on our ambitious transformation strategy and capitalize on the significant growth opportunity within the luxury market,” said Marc Metrick, CEO of Saks Global Operating Group. “Brandy joins us at a time of great momentum on our journey to redefine luxury shopping. I’m confident that her strong leadership and strategic perspective will position us for long-term sustainable growth and value creation.”
Metrick continued, “Mark has provided critical direction to develop and implement our finance strategy following the NMG acquisition, positioning us to meet our commitments and execute on our strategic plans. He has brought valuable leadership to Saks Global, and we are grateful for his stewardship during this transformational time.”
Richardson added, “Saks Global is poised to shape the future of luxury retail and I’m thrilled to join this forward-thinking team. My years with NMG were foundational to my career, and I’m energized by the opportunity to return to luxury retail as part of Saks Global during this incredibly exciting time for the company. I look forward to helping drive the company’s future success by identifying and pursuing opportunities for sustainable, long-term growth.”
Richardson will be part of the Saks Global Management Team, reporting to Metrick. She will join Saks Global’s Dallas-based team. Richardson and Weinsten will partner together to ensure a seamless transition.
