De Beers says its executive vice president and chief brand officer David Prager and acting executive vice president of strategy and innovation Ryan Perry will leave the diamond group in 2024.
It said both Prager and Perry will continue to serve on the executive committee while overseeing the transition of their responsibilities to its other members.
Prager will also continue to serve as the chairperson of the Natural Diamond Council (NDC) until a successor is elected by the NDC board.
Meanwhile, De Beers appointed Tom Johnson as its general counsel, with effect from 1 January 2024. He will join the executive committee, overseeing the company’s legal and company secretariat functions.
