After more than 32 years at the firm, Corbett has stepped back from the role’s responsibilities as he moves towards retirement in September 2018.
Corbett will continue to work very closely with the Rémy Cointreau USA management team on a variety of matters, including the continued management of strong partner relationships, control state management, and the integration of the latest brand to the Rémy Cointreau portfolio, Westland Whiskey, which the firm acquired in December last year.
He will continue to report to Philippe Farnier, president and chief executive officer for Rémy Cointreau Americas and will be responsible for the sales leadership transition.
Conrad joined Rémy Cointreau in 2006 as the senior market manager for Georgia and Tennessee. He was promoted several times and recently held the role of vice president division manager – South, in October 2013.
Conrad will relocate to the New York area in the near future.
