Deckers Brands continues its internal restructuring, appointing Marco Ellerker to a key leadership role, marking the company’s second internal promotion in recent months. Ellerker, who has held various operational positions within Deckers since 2017, steps into his new role as President of Global Marketplace. His appointment follows the earlier announcement of Chief Commercial Officer Stefano Caroti as the incoming president and CEO, succeeding Dave Powers upon his retirement on August 1, 2024.
“Marco has been instrumental in driving the global success of our brands,” remarked Dave Powers. “His expertise will further bolster our omni-channel strategy and advance our portfolio’s growth trajectory.”
While the company has prioritized internal promotions, it brought in external talent with the appointment of Robin Green as Hoka’s new president in February. Green, formerly with Nike, joined Deckers to lead its Hoka division. Deckers’ executive team has undergone strategic enhancements in recent years, including creating new positions and the succession planning for the CEO role. Angela Ogbechie, a seasoned Deckers veteran, assumed the newly established role of Chief Supply Chain Officer following the departure of former Chief Operating Officer David Lafitte in June 2022.
