Compliance Jobs News
Carnival Cruise Lines continues to beef up its compliance operations. The company just promoted Chris Donald, corporate compliance manager, to senior vice president for environmental compliance. (Environmental failures were what landed Carnival in hot water with the feds.) Donald will report to Peter Anderson, Carnival’s new chief compliance officer. You may have seen reports about Anderson’s appointment this week, but of course Radical Compliance had that news last month.
Promoted: Matt Abbott, at Chemours Co. in Wilmington, Del., from chief audit executive to chief accounting officer. Abbott has been with Chemours, a chemicals company, since 2017.
In New York, Suprio Chaudhuri has joined Naxitis CIB as deputy chief compliance officer for the Americas. Chaudhuri previously was chief compliance officer for ABN Amro Securities for two years.
Here’s quite a move: Matthew Frank has departed Las Vegas Sands Corp., where he had been global chief compliance officer, to be chief legal and compliance officer at DTI Holdings — a nanotechnology firm in Irvine, Calif.
