Network equipment vendor Tellabs has appointed its third CFO of 2013 after Tom Minichiello, who was acting in the position, resigned.
Larry Rieger has become the new acting CFO. Tellabs last permanent CFO, Andrew Szafran, left the role in May citing personal reasons.
Dan Kelly, Tellabs president and CEO, said: “Larry brings Tellabs deep expertise in finance, plus more than a decade of experience working with our finance team, so he can hit the ground running.”
Since 2003 Rieger has collaborated with Tellabs in his capacity as a partner at risk consultants Crowe Horwath. He was managing partner and CEO there before joining Tellabs.
Minichiello left Tellabs to join Westell, another telecoms equipment manufacturer.
Tellabs senior management has changed dramatically over the last year. In November Dan Kelly was appointed its new fulltime CEO following the passing of Rob Pullen last summer. In May Vincent Tobkin succeeded Michael Birck as chairman.
