A graduate of Augustana College will return to campus to work as chief financial officer. On Friday, the college announced the hiring of Kirk Anderson, currently an associate director of procurement finance at Kraft-Heinz Foods in Northfield, Illinois.
Anderson will start his new job in December.
He graduated in 1993, and since then has spent 20 years working in accounting and finance, including 15 years at Kraft. He also served as the plant controller at the Oscar Mayer plant in Davenport, from 2009 through 2011.
The search began last spring following the resignation of David English - after 3 years at Augustana he left to become chief financial officer for Denison University in Ohio.
