Natural and organic foods retailer Wild Oats Markets has announced that the company’s chief financial officer Robert Dimond has resigned effective 31 December.


Dimond, who joined Wild Oats as CFO in January 2005, tendered his resignation on 19 December to pursue another opportunity.


Wild Oats said that the company’s chairman of the board and acting chief executive officer, Gregory Mays, would oversee the Wild Oats finance and accounting departments until a new or interim CFO is hired.


The company said that Mays has an extensive financial management background and was formerly executive vice president and CFO of California-based food retailer Ralphs Grocery Company.


“We appreciate Bob’s contributions during his tenure at Wild Oats,” Mays said. “He has built a strong financial management discipline, and significant expertise and depth in the accounting and finance departments of this company. This strength, coupled with my extensive financial management background, will allow for a smooth transition until a permanent chief financial officer is identified.”
