ServiceMaster's Vice Chairman and Chief Financial Officer Ernie Mrozek will transition out of his current position by Feb. 29, 2008 and the company will search for a new CFO.
Mrozek currently has responsibility for finance and accounting, strategic sourcing, investor relations, and risk and safety. He has agreed to remain with the company through February 2008.
“ServiceMaster is a great company with a bright future,” Mrozek said. “I have been honored to work with so many talented and dedicated people during the past 20 years. While family considerations prevent me from relocating to Memphis, I look forward to working closely with CEO Pat Spainhour and the leadership team to complete a smooth transition.”
Mrozek has been based in the company’s Downer’s Grove, Ill., headquarters office, which was recently relocated to Memphis.
“I know this was a very difficult decision for Ernie. Although everyone at ServiceMaster is saddened by this news, we are grateful for Ernie’s passion, leadership and accomplishments throughout his many years of dedicated service," Spainhour said. "We wish him the very best as he takes the next step in his career.”
Mrozek joined ServiceMaster in 1987 as vice president of accounting. He served in several leadership roles with the company, including president and COO.
