OSAKA, Japan, November 25, 2022 - Shionogi & Co., Ltd. (Head Office: Osaka, Japan; Chief Executive Officer: Isao Teshirogi, Ph.D.; hereafter "Shionogi") announced that Shionogi will implement the following corporate reorganization and personnel reassignment as of January 1, 2023.
1. Corporate Reorganization (see attached organization chart)
New establishment of the Business Administration Office
Toward the realization of STS2030, in July 2022 we established supervisory organizations in charge of each major value chain in order to further clarify business execution responsibilities and strengthen cooperation between related departments. As the quality and speed of decision-making by each supervisory unit improves, it become increasingly important to collect and share financial and non-financial information in a timely manner, and to monitor and verify management conditions. The Business Administration Office will be newly established under the Finance & Accounting Department to combine, visualize, and analyze vast amounts of information on management resources, leading to business improvement.
