Blue Nile has appointed Katie Zimmerman as chief
merchandising officer, a role that entails overseeing bridal and fashion
jewelry.
“Katie brings a unique eye and thoughtful analysis to
merchandising,” said CEO Jason Goldberger, to whom Zimmerman will report. “Her
skill set is critical to unlocking the sourcing, assortment and sales wins that
will further Blue Nile’s position as the industry leader.”
Zimmerman previously worked as vice president of
merchandising at Zale Corporation, now a division of Signet Jewelers, beginning
her career there as an assistant buyer in 2002.
Zimmerman will relocate from Texas to the Seattle
area. She is Blue Nile’s second executive hire in two weeks: Earlier this
month, Bill Koefoed joined the company as chief financial officer.
