Ford Motor Company today announced the appointment of Kyle Crockett to the role of Chief Accounting Officer (CAO). In that role, he will have responsibility for all aspects of Ford’s accounting function and internal control over financial reporting. Crockett’s appointment will be effective the first business day after the company files its second quarter Form 10-Q. In the interim, he will serve as Vice President, Accounting, reporting to Chief Financial Officer Sherry House.
Crockett brings a wealth of experience in accounting, SEC and financial reporting, internal controls, process and system transformation, and tax to his new position. Most recently, he served as Vice President, Controller and CAO at Carrier Global Corporation. In that position, he established the global controllership team, implemented a culture of quality, accountability and collaboration, and helped streamline Carrier’s business portfolio and simplify its technology footprint.
Prior to joining Carrier, Crockett worked across industries and geographies, including spending more than a decade at General Motors. There, he launched process transformation initiatives to drive global standardization, improve quality and efficiency and enhance insight to drive better decision making.
“I am pleased to welcome Kyle to Ford. The discipline, rigor and systematic approach he will bring to accounting will support us as we continue to progress our business transformation," said Ford CFO Sherry House.
Crockett will succeed Mark Kosman, who is taking on another role in the finance organization. Crockett is expected to join Ford on May 19.
