Meta has announced the appointment of Dina Powell McCormick, a seasoned banking executive and former senior U.S. government official, as its new President and Vice-Chairman. In this role, McCormick will join Meta’s management team and play a pivotal part in shaping the company’s overall strategy and execution.
“Dina’s experience at the highest levels of global finance, combined with her deep relationships around the world, makes her uniquely suited to help Meta manage this next phase of growth as the company’s president and vice chairman,” said Mark Zuckerberg, Meta’s Founder and CEO.
McCormick brings an extensive background in finance and public service. She previously served as a partner at Goldman Sachs, where she led the firm’s Global Sovereign Investment Banking business, and most recently held the position of Vice Chair, President, and Head of Global Client Services at merchant bank BDT & MSD Partners. Her public sector experience includes serving as Deputy National Security Advisor under President Donald Trump and holding multiple senior roles during the George W. Bush administration, including Assistant Secretary of State under Secretary Condoleezza Rice. McCormick is married to Senator Dave McCormick (R-PA).
Notably, Dina Powell McCormick joined Meta’s board in April 2024 but stepped down in December. Just weeks later, she returns to the company in an even more prominent leadership role.
Her appointment follows another high-profile hire by Meta earlier this month: Curtis Joseph Mahoney, former Corporate Vice President and General Counsel at Microsoft, who now serves as Meta’s Chief Legal Officer. Mahoney also previously worked as a Deputy U.S. Trade Representative during the Trump administration.
With these strategic appointments, Meta signals its intent to strengthen its leadership bench as it navigates a complex global landscape and positions itself for long-term growth.
