Global Communications for Snap Following Completion of Sale of
Certain 21st Century Fox Assets to The Walt Disney Company
Snap Inc. (NYSE: SNAP) Chief Executive Officer Evan Spiegel
announced today that Julie Henderson will join the company as Chief
Communications Officer. In this role, Ms. Henderson will report to
Mr. Spiegel and lead communications globally as Snap continues to
redefine the camera and empower people to express themselves
visually with friends and family.
Ms. Henderson is currently Executive Vice President and Chief
Communications Officer for 21st Century Fox. She will assume her
new role at Snap immediately following the completion of the sale
of certain 21st Century Fox assets to The Walt Disney Company.
“Julie will be an outstanding addition to our team,” said Evan
Spiegel. “She brings incredible experience, talent, and integrity,
as well as the respect of the tech, media and finance communities.
We are excited to have Julie play a key leadership role in the next
chapter of the Snap story.”
Ms. Henderson will take over the responsibilities of Mary Ritti,
Vice President of Communications. Ms. Ritti, who joined Snap in
2013, announced her decision to leave the company last summer.
“I am deeply grateful to Mary for everything she has done for
Snap over the past six years,” said Mr. Spiegel. “She has been an
incredible partner and we could not have built Snap without her
dedication to our community and mission.”
“The Snap team’s deep connection with its global community and
their passion for creating innovative products made this an
irresistible opportunity,” said Ms. Henderson. “As the company
enters its next phase of development, its creativity and vision set
the stage to grow Snap’s business and impact. I’m excited to work
with Evan and my new colleagues to further their vision and belief
in the power of visual communications.”
Prior to her current post at 21st Century Fox, Ms. Henderson was
the Company’s Senior Vice President of Communications and Corporate
Strategy, where she led communications and developed company-wide
marketing and distribution strategies.
