Ulta Salon, Cosmetics & Fragrance, Inc. (ULTA) said Wednesday that it has appointed Bruce Hartman as Chief Financial Officer, effective September 7.
Hartman will succeed Gregg Bodnar, who has held the role of Chief Financial Officer at Ulta Salon since 2006. In March, Bodnar announced his plans to step down from his position to allow him to relocate to Michigan to attend to a family health issue, and to remain in the position to assist in the hiring and onboarding of a new CFO. He will step down as CFO on September 6 and will continue to work with Ulta to ensure a smooth transition.
Hartman most recently served as Executive Vice President, Chief Administrative Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Yankee Candle Co. Prior to joining Yankee Candle in 2008, Hartman was the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Cushman & Wakefield from 2006 to 2008.
Hartman is a retail industry veteran, having served in a variety of senior leadership roles at Foot Locker, Inc. from 1996 to 2005. He was named Chief Financial Officer in 1999.
