De Beers has appointed Jillian Wolk as CEO of its Tracr diamond-traceability platform.
Wolk most recently served as vice president of growth and strategic initiatives at the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). During her time with the institute, Wolk worked closely with the Tracr team, giving her a deep understanding of the platform and its mission, De Beers said Monday.
“[Wolk] brings a strong combination of industry knowledge, commercial leadership and strategic insight,” said Paul Rowley, executive vice president of diamond trading at De Beers. “Her insights across jewelry, technology and governance, together with her background working with Tracr, provide her with a wealth of valuable experience to lead the business into its next phase.”
Wolk has also held senior executive roles in the jewelry and technology industries, including a stint as vice president of business operations at Swarovski. De Beers hired her as a replacement for Wesley Tucker, who stepped down as CEO at the end of February.
Wolk, who will begin her new role on May 1, will be based in New York.
