Brilliant Earth Announces Two C-Level Promotions 

Jewelry retailer Brilliant Earth has promoted Pamela Catlett to chief brand officer and Sharon Dziesietnik to chief operations officer. Both are already members of the company’s executive team. 

Catlett will manage all aspects of Brilliant Earth’s brand strategy, including the expansion of its retail presence, the online-focused fine jeweler said Monday. 

Before joining Brilliant Earth in 2023, Catlett held leading roles at activewear and apparel companies Outdoor Voices, Under Armour, and Nike. She has also advised several founders and CEOs as a business consultant. 

Dziesietnik will oversee Brilliant Earth’s overall operations, from sourcing to distribution. She joined the company in 2012 and rose through the ranks, serving most recently as senior vice president of customer operations. Her management of the company’s sales team helped it grow to 400 jewelry experts at 40 showrooms across the US, according to the retailer.  

During Catlett’s and Dziesietnik’s tenures at Brilliant Earth, “we have made significant strides in advancing operational excellence and have witnessed strong brand growth,” said CEO and cofounder Beth Gerstein in the company’s announcement. “Their contributions and leadership are pivotal to our continued success, and I look forward to their continuing work to further our mission of transforming the jewelry industry.”
