Mark Bierley, the CFO of US c-store operator The Pantry, has announced his resignation.

Bierley, who joined The Pantry in 2010 from Borders Group, will step down on 25 May. The company said he has accepted a position near his home in Michigan.

Prior to his stints as COO and CFO of Borders Group, Bierley held positions in the financial departments for Dunham’s Athleisure Corp, and Federal-Mogul, a global automotive parts manufacturer.

The company said it will begin a search for a replacement CFO “promptly”. Berry Epley, VP and corporate controller, will assume Bierley’s responsibilities until a successor is named.

“Mark has made tremendous contributions as CFO of the company and will be missed. However, we understand his desire to return to his home and family in Michigan and wish him success in his new position,” CEO Dennis Hatchell said.
