Pernod Ricard has appointed Martin Riley, head of marketing for its Chivas Brothers division, as the group's new vice president of global marketing.
A spokesperson for the French wine and spirits giant confirmed the move to just-drinks today (21 January). She declined to comment further.
Riley, who has been with Chivas since the division's birth in 2001, will replace Jean-Paul Richard, who is expected to retire.
Chivas Brothers handles Pernod's Scotch whisky and premium gin portfolio.
It has successfully captured a boom in global demand for Scotch whisky in recent years, with flagship brand Chivas Regal reporting an 11% sales rise in the fiscal full-year ended 30 June 2008.

Martin, congratulations. Well deserved!
I will never forget the good times we shared at Allied Domecq some 15 years ago.
At that time you were already delivering outstanding results with Ballantines, Beefeater and the Single Malts.
Cheers & Salut!
