Aussie takes on permanent C-Suite role at Gibson Brands
Gibson Brands has today confirmed Luke Ericson to the permanent role of chief operating officer of Gibson Brands.
Acting as interim COO since May 2023, the Australian-raised Ericson has helped reorganize the iconic instrument brand’s business around manufacturing, planning and supply chain and enterprise solutions globally. He will report to Gibson Brands president and CEO, Cesar Gueikian.
“I am excited to confirm Luke as our permanent chief operating officer,” Gueikian said.
“Luke’s overall experience as an operations expert, successfully serving in multiple leadership roles, uniquely positions him to drive operational excellence for Gibson. I have full confidence in Luke’s ability to lead our office of the COO, and Gibson, into the future.”
Ericson, who studied at the University of Technology in Sydney, joined Gibson in 2023 from KKR after a near five-year stint where he worked as an operating partner. Prior to that he served as director at AlixPartners for almost eight years.
Earlier in his career, Ericson worked as a turnaround and restructuring consultant in Australia.
