Cencora has hired Eva Boratto as the pharmaceutical distributor's new executive vice president and chief financial officer, plucking the executive from retailer Bath & Body Works.

Cencora on Wednesday said Boratto joins the Conshohocken, Pa., company on June 29 to succeed James Cleary, who in March announced plans to retire after serving as finance chief since November 2018.

Bath & Body Works said Boratto, who joined the retailer as chief financial officer in August 2023, will depart on June 12, adding that it has launched a search for a new finance chief.

Cencora said Cleary, who joined the pharmaceutical-distribution company in February 2015 following its acquisition of MWI Veterinary Supply, will serve in an advisory capacity through the end of 2026 to assist with the transition.

Bath & Body Works said Tom Javitch, who has been with the Columbus, Ohio, company for 16 years, will step in as interim chief financial officer.
