Management Shuffle at Jones
New York–based The Jones Group Inc. named Rick Paterno, formerly Jones’ president of wholesale better footwear brands, group president of footwear. Ron Offir, former president of e-commerce, was named president of the Jones Direct Group. The changes come in the wake of the departure of two executives: Andrew Cohen, former chief executive officer of footwear, accessories and retail, and Jay Friedman, who headed up Jones’ company-owned retail business.
