Orthofix Names New CFO

Orthofix International N.V. has promoted Brian McCollum to chief financial officer. McCollum, who had been serving as interim CFO since Jan. 1, officially assumed his new role on March 1.

“We are delighted to promote Brian into the CFO position,” Alan Milinazzo, Orthofix president and CEO, said in a formal statement. “Throughout his 10-year tenure with Orthofix he has taken on roles of increasing responsibility, including successfully serving as the vice president of finance for our largest domestic and international business units which gives him tremendous insight into our business worldwide.”

Last year, executives named McCollum senior vice president of finance. He joined Orthofix’s corporate finance group in 2001, eventually advancing to the position of corporate controller. In 2006, McCollum was named vice president of finance, Americas, and two years later became vice president of international finance and group treasurer. Prior to joining Orthofix, McCollum was a senior audit associate with PriceWaterhouseCoopers.

He received his bachelor’s degree in business administration, with a concentration in accounting, from St. Andrews Presbyterian College in Laurinburg, N.C.
