Neiman Marcus has appointed Hannah Kim as new chief compliance officer and chief legal officer, effective July 26. Kim will oversee legal and compliance for the chain of luxury department stores and will work to “promote and protect the company’s overall business strategy,” the company said in an announcement.
Kim was most recently chief legal officer at battery manufacturer Energizer Holdings, where she was responsible for legal, compliance, ethics, and regulatory and government affairs. Neiman Marcus noted in a statement that she also brings experience in leading environmental, social, and governance strategy.
Kim’s hiring follows several recent key appointments for the Dallas-based company, including Bob Kupbens as executive vice president and chief product and technology officer, as well as fashion veteran Lisa Aiken as senior vice president and lifestyle director.
“It is an honor to join Neiman Marcus Group at this pivotal time of ongoing growth and transformation,” said Kim. “I’m excited to be a part of how we bring innovative and luxurious experiences to our customers.”
Prior to her three years at Energizer, Kim served in senior roles at Bank of America and Lowe’s. She started her law career at Parker Poe Adams & Bernstein and Alston & Bird, and earned her bachelor’s degree and law degree from the University of Tennessee. She is also a member of the Leadership Council on Legal Diversity.
