On March 31, 2026, Amrize Ltd announced the appointment of Baris Oran as the new Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of the company, effective April 1, 2026. Oran succeeds Ian Johnston, who will transition to a senior advisory role to ensure a smooth handover. Oran brings a wealth of experience to the position, having served as CFO of GXO Logistics, Inc. from August 2021 until March 2026, and previously held the same role at XPO Logistics, Inc. and the Sabanci Group. His extensive background in finance across various industries positions him well to lead Amrize's financial strategy during a critical period of growth.

In conjunction with his appointment, Amrize has entered into an employment agreement with Oran that outlines his compensation and benefits. His annual base salary will be $750,000, with eligibility for an annual bonus plan targeting 100% of his salary, and potential long-term equity grants valued at a minimum of 325% of his base salary. Additionally, he will receive a car allowance of $29,000 per year and will participate in the company's health, disability, and life insurance plans.

Johnston's departure from the CFO role is not due to any disagreements regarding the company's financial practices, as confirmed by the company. Instead, it reflects a strategic decision to bring in new leadership to further enhance the company's financial operations. The transition is expected to be seamless, with Johnston remaining on board as a senior advisor for a year to assist Oran in acclimating to his new role.

Amrize Ltd, listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker AMRZ, is focused on providing advanced solutions for professional builders across North America. The company reported revenues of $11.8 billion in 2025, and with Oran's appointment, it aims to strengthen its financial foundation and accelerate profitable growth in the coming years.
