The new CFO of Heinz is 29 years old

-

The Heinz ketchup maker Kraft Heinz Co. on Friday said 3G Capital partner David Knopf would replace Paulo Basilio as its chief financial officer, starting in October.
Kraft Heinz, backed by billionaire investor Warren Buffett and the private equity firm 3G Capital, also said Basilio would become president of its US business, while its chief operating officer, George Zoghbi, will transition to a strategic adviser role.
Knopf, 29, the vice president and category head of Kraft Heinz's Planters nuts business, has worked with 3G Capital on mergers involving companies such as Burger King and H.J. Heinz Co.
He attended Princeton from 2006 to 2010, according to his LinkedIn profile, before joining Goldman Sachs. He moved to 3G Capital in 2013.
Kraft Heinz’s new CFO couldn’t rent a car five years ago. 29-year-old David Knopf will soon handle finances for the food giant, which has a $100 billion market cap; he’ll be the youngest CFO to lead one of the US’s largest companies. (The average age of a Fortune 500 or S&P 500 CFO is 52, according to Crist Kolder.) Knopf, also a partner at Brazilian private equity group 3G Capital, worked on the very merger that created Kraft Heinz. Now he’ll help the company cut costs and boost sluggish sales
