Through the first quarter of 2023, Teunissen will be actively engaged with key finance and strategy initiatives as well as facilitating a smooth CFO transition, a statement said.
“I would like to thank Ernst, also on behalf of our Board of Directors, for his many valuable contributions over the past seven years, and personally for the counsel he has provided through my own onboarding,” said Matt Goldberg, Chief Executive Officer at Tripadvisor. “His guidance, especially through the volatile pandemic period, has been key to our strong financial position. Moreover, his leadership of Viator, TheFork, and Cruise Critic, has driven strong revenue growth for these strategic businesses coming out of the pandemic.”
“I am also excited to announce that Mike Noonan is joining the team as our new CFO. He brings a dynamic set of experiences across consumer brands and digital business models and a strategic perspective grounded in a deep knowledge of the travel industry, along with a broad and tenured background in corporate finance, long-term financial planning, and capital markets. We look forward to his leadership and insight as we address the many opportunities to serve our consumers and partners across the travel ecosystem,” continued Goldberg. “On behalf of all our employees, we welcome him to the Tripadvisor family.”
