Airbnb Chief Financial Officer Dave Stephenson will transition into a newly created chief business officer role at the company.
Airbnb Chief Financial Officer Dave Stephenson, who helped guide the company through Covid-19 tumult and an initial public offering, will transition into a newly created chief business officer role, Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky said in a Tuesday note to employees viewed by CNBC.
Chesky said Stephenson's new role would also mark an "inflection point" for Airbnb, where the business would begin to focus on growth across existing and new businesses.
"As Chief Business Officer, Dave will be across all aspects of our strategy to expand beyond the core," Chesky wrote.
Before joining Airbnb, Stephenson was finance chief at Amazon's Worldwide Consumer unit.
