Integration Management Office

As a first step to define the new IFF and prepare for the integration of N&B and IFF after transaction close, a joint Integration Management Office (IMO) has been established, which is led by Angela Naef, N&B Integration Leader and Rich O’Leary, IFF Integration Leader. The team is supported by several leaders from the two businesses.

A New Combination, A New Vision

One of the key tasks of the IMO will be to the broader vision and strategy of the new IFF while developing a roadmap required to bring N&B and IFF together

The IMO team is working on full speed to develop this taking into consideration the heritage of both N&B and IFF as well as similarities and strengths of both businesses.

“We want to create something aspirational and inspiring which employees, customers, investors and all other stakeholders find meaningful and appealing. We will share regular updates as we refine the purpose, vision and strategy behind this exciting combination,” explains Angela Naef.

In addition to the IMO team, a larger integration team which will be responsible for carrying out planning and execution at the operational level is in the process of being defined and will also be comprised of representatives from both N&B and IFF.

All leaders and employees who will be involved in integration work and in contact with IFF have or will receive antitrust training to ensure compliance in sharing of information and clear guidelines on IFF interactions.
