Nathalie Roos is stepping down as chief executive officer of Lipton Teas and Infusions for personal reasons.

Her departure follows two years at the helm of the global tea company. Pierre Laubies, chair of the board, will assume the role of executive chair while the company searches for Roos' successor.

Since taking on the role in July 2022, Roos has played a key role in positioning Lipton as a leading player in the consumer beverage market, said the business. Under her leadership, the company has relaunched several key brands and established a major global sourcing partnership with Browns Investments, which included the transfer of Lipton's East African tea estates.

Roos said: "I have found my time at Lipton Teas and Infusions enormously rewarding. I believe we have created a special company with tremendous potential, and I look forward to watching its future success."

Laubies added: "On behalf of the board, I would like to thank Nathalie for her achievements as CEO of Lipton Teas and Infusions. She has set the business on an exciting journey that we continue to follow, and I wish her all the best.
