Description
Dollar Tree on Tuesday appointed Aditya Maheshwari chief accounting officer and senior vice president. Maheshwari takes over the post held by Kathleen Mallas , who tendered her resignation in April and left the discounter near the end of May. Maheshwari’s hiring is yet another change to Dollar Tree’s executive ranks, which have undergone a near-total transformation since last summer when the retailer announced the departure of its COO, CIO, chief legal officer, chief strategy officer and CFO. Rick Dreiling was named Dollar Tree’s CEO in January, replacing Mike Witynski, who had been with the company since 2010 and had held the top post since 2020.
