GoDaddy names Chief Client Officer, fresh CMO

One of GoDaddy’s original employees moves to fresh position.

GoDaddy disclosed today that long time Chief Marketing Office Barb Rechterman will be the firm’s Chief Client Officer, a newly-formed position.

As stated by a press release, this fresh position is “responsible for aligning the firm’s products, services and engagement models with strategic needs and values of GoDaddy’s unique client base.”

Rechterman has been with GoDaddy since it was founded in 1997. She has been a driving driving force behind the firm’s marketing, even though most of the credit externally has been given to firm founder Bob Parsons.

Phil Bienert, a former AT&T executive who has been with GoDaddy since 2013, will fill Rechterman’s shoes as Chief Marketing Officer.
