Pall Corp. (PLL: Quote), a manufacturer of filtration, purification, and separation products, Monday said its board of directors would appoint Akhil Johri as Chief Financial Officer, effective May 1.
Johri, 51, is currently Vice President of Finance and Chief Financial Officer for United Technologies Corp.’s Propulsion & Aerospace Systems group, a $27 billion unit consisting of Pratt & Whitney and UTC Aerospace Systems.
Larry Kingsley, Pall’s President and CEO, said, “Akhil is a highly regarded and accomplished executive with a proven track record of financial leadership for global industrial technology and aerospace businesses. His strong background in strategic finance and operations combined with his investor relations and business development experience makes him an ideal fit for Pall.”
During his 26 years with UTC, Johri has held various executive positions of increasing responsibility. Prior to his current role, he served as CFO for UTC’s Carrier Transicold and UTC’s Fire & Security units as well as for Carrier Asia Pacific Operations.
Johri led Corporate Investor Relations for UTC and has been very involved with UTC’s Financial Leadership Development program. He also has extensive experience in leading operational restructuring activities, geographic market expansion, acquisition integration and supply chain optimization.
Kingsley, who was recently named interim CFO, will continue in that role until Johri officially joins Pall.
